Jess

A tribute for All those I have lost, and those who fight to find themselves peace

I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone. Suicide affects so many walks of people, the walk is hard, painful, exhausting and sometimes you don't want to get out of bed in the morning. This is what this walk symbolizes to me. Showing up. Pushing through and taking it one step at a time to support those who need it. Don't give up. Don't be complacent and take your time.

A tribute for Sam

I’m walking in solidarity this October for people affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone. I miss you Sam. Even 18 years later it brings a tear to my eye. Your facebook page full of tributes of people who miss you and wanted to share their lives with you, the births, celebrations, and just the everyday moments. If he had reached out not only to God and missionaries, but to his friends, his family, or to support services, he would have found acceptance, understanding, love, and support to grapple with his demons, and accept himself. You are never alone.

I have experienced mental health challenges personally, I have lost friends and athletes that I've coached to suicide. Organisations like Black Dog Institute are fantastic and can only keep helping and educating people with your support. Your support by donating or sharing and talking is greatly appreciated. 🫶💚 I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone.

A tribute for Anyone who needs support

I’m riding my bike in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone. I was diagnosed with severe anxiety and depression in 2020 after I had a tough time at work. My dad had been diagnosed with a rare degenerative neurological disease, my eldest son was diagnosed with Bipolar and my youngest son with Crohns Disease. Life was pretty tough but with the love and support of my husband and family, I was able to keep putting one foot in front of the other. You are not alone. We all need to keep putting one foot forward, sometimes we just need to ask for help. You are not alone on this journey.

Riley Lewis

A tribute for All People Struggling with Mental Health

I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone. Hi All, This is something quite hard for me to come out and acknowledge my mental health struggles. I’m here to break the stigma YOU ARE NOT ALONE. I have taken on this challenge to raise funds for Black Dog Institute as I recently was diagnosed with the onset of PTSD. I have had some rough patches in the last few months and it has taken a massive impact on my mental health and my family. The challenges we face as an individual with mental health are hard, distressing, emotionally draining and the list goes on. However from my personal experiences this can also impact those family and friends around you. Which is why I have accepted this challenge to raise additional funding to help you or your family with accessing mental health help should you need.

You are not alone, never have been, never will be. The world is lucky to have you 🫶🏼

Kathy

My story is not unique unfortunately. After 40 plus years of trying to live with the financial, relationship, employment struggles of having a mentalhealth illness, the pain and hopelessness got too much to bare. I survived to continue the fight. But too many don't. I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone.
