My Story

On April 21st 2024 I shall be running the London Marathon!

I’m crazy I know 😆

I have started my training so let's hope I do well! 

I suffer with my own mental health, I take Venlafaxine twice a day for Depression, Anxiety and panic attacks. These seem to do there job, along side this, I see a therapist when I can and also use NHS better help every mind matters amongst other things. So I know and understand the struggles people have and go through on a daily basis. To put on a brave smiling face when sometimes you feel your absolute worst but have to carry on with your day.  To have the demons try and tell you how worthless you are and how the world would be a better place without you.  

Even though 1 in 4 people have mental health problems, most of us don’t get the help we need.

This has to change.

Mind are  here to fight mental health. For support for respect, for you.

They change minds across England and Wales by making mental health an everyday priority. By standing up to the injustices – in healthcare, in work, in law – which make life harder for those of us with mental health problems.

We support minds – offering help whenever you might need it through our information, advice and local services.

And we connect minds. Bringing together an unstoppable network of individuals and communities – people who care about mental health to make a difference.

Join us in the fight for mental health. We won’t stop until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets both support and respect.
