Support My Walk for Mental Health Research

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental illness each year?

This October, I’m taking part in One Foot Forward to help Australians impacted by mental illness and suicide.

I'm walking to raise funds for Black Dog Institute to put ground-breaking new mental health treatment, education, and digital services into the hands of the people who need them most.

It would mean so much to me if you donated to support my walk.

Together, we can create better mental health for all Australians.

My Updates

Little update

Today I walked 4km the most I have walked in one session in a while, I felt amazing after it. I’ve been struggling a lot mentally lately but instead of bed rotting I push myself to get changed and go for a walk.

I’m Back

Today I started back walking after a weekend low, Smashed out 3 km and saw this beautiful site.

Down

I have not gone walking in 2 days I’ve been having a struggle motivating myself from a low in my mood

My reason

The reason in which I will walk as far as my body will allow me is to raise very much needed funds for mental health. I have BPD ADHD BIPOLAR CPTSD. In the past I have entered dissociation to the point of near suicide, I had also presented to emergency days prior for a review so I wouldn’t get to this point, and I was turned away and the doctor outright did not care. this should not be happening the only reason I’m somewhat functional today is due to my own fight to survive and the fact I got private health insurance. Not everyone can afford to have mental health struggles so things like this I’m more than willing to take part in.
