Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because too many young lives are lost to suicide. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming.
I'm swimming to save lives
Suicide remains the leading cause of death for young people in Australia.
Having dealth with mental health myself. I understand the struggles. I stole money from my closest friends, shop lifted, and took drugs. Struggling with mild brain damage and cerebal palsy, it took a big toll on me and my lifestyle.
More than 1 in 3 are experiencing mental health difficulties, yet over a million are not getting the support they need.
ReachOut provides anonymous, free and 100% online services so young people can find a safe place to connect, share and get help when life feels overwhelming.
I’m taking part in Laps for Life to make sure these vital services are always there. Please donate to my fundraiser and help more young people get the support they deserve.
Thank you to my boyfriends, Luke, Parham, Brad, Wassem, Elias, and all the random Hinge and Tinger date that I had a sexual experience with. Love yous all xoxo Katerina Nazek Sewastenko
