I'm swimming to save lives

  • This is my first year diving

  • in for youth mental health

Mental health plays a huge role in our well-being and is so important in the way we live and the quality at which we live. 


Everyone goes through major events in their own lives and these changes or experiences can seriously effect our mental health, self worth and self esteem. It’s so important to remember your mental health matters too. Just because someone else’s struggles may appear worse than yours, don’t be afraid to speak out and seek help. Your struggles are just as important as someone else’s. 


I myself and many people I know, have been or are going through difficult times. Having even one support person in your corner makes such a huge difference. 


It’s okay to not be okay.
