I'm swimming to save lives
- This is my first year diving
- in for youth mental health
I didn’t think I’d ever truly face mental health problems - I was and am a positive person, growing up in a health, stable family, and experiencing a life that some can only dream about.
But, at the end of the day, adversity, stress, work, relationships, and life eventually threw a challenge. In hindsight, I didn’t respond well.
I was lucky to have people behind me on the rough days - people willing to stick by me. Something I’ll never take for granted.
Now on the other side of it all, I realise not everyone gets that support and chance to bounce back - so, for those people, I’ll commit - I hope you can contribute your hard earned dollar while I commit my time, energy and poorly conditioned rotator cuff.
Thanks.
