EXPERIENCE LEXINGTON HOUSE

My name is Jlynn Urbin and I have been a member at Lexington House for 3 years since May of 2024. Clubhouse has impacted me to attend morning meetings early in the day instead of sleeping in late and wondering what I should do to fill my time for the day. I attend the meeting and try to keep busy doing a task for the work-ordered day to feel as an important colleague of Club. I’m learning to do different tasks on the computer to help staff. What I'm trying to say is without attending Club I wouldn’t be a part of a group learning and having fun so I’m not isolating at home alone by myself with a mental illness. I also like the socials because it gives me the opportunity to gather with others at Club or in public, giving me better socializing skills with others. I was told to learn to be near others more and spend time twice a week in public and that is why I chose Lexington House as my place to be.
