Support My Walk for Mental Health Research
Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience symptoms of mental illness each year?
Mental illness can be debilitating and can have a devastating impact on not only those living with it, but those around them.
This October, I’m taking part in One Foot Forward to help reduce the impact of 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.
As someone who's struggled with clinical depression my entire life and not being able to get any help due to finances or delaying any sort of medication due to being raised in a household that didn't believe in mental disorders, I completely understand the struggle people go through day to day. I'm walking in solidarity in October to not only provide support for those who are diagnosed and need help, but also for those who are struggling and may not realise that life can be easier! Just know, you are not alone, and you never will be :)
