Story
My Mental Health Story, so far.
In June of 2017, I broke down ..... I collapsed ...
I was diagnosed with mental health illnesses that scared me. They don’t any more.
'It is what it is” ... I used to say that a lot, I should never have been convinced otherwise.
Because it is what it is, I am who I am .
Hi... I am Jimmy Mac and I and mentally ill. Since June 2017 I have been seeing health professionals and we are working to help me get better.
I’m Jimmy Mac and I suffer from severe DEPRESSION. It doesn't define me.
I’m Jimmy Mac and I suffer from GAD . General Anxiety Disorder. Anxiety has been my longest and closest bedfellow for, well for ever.
I’m Jimmy Mac and I suffer with Obsessive Behaviour Disorders. Sometimes they help me perform and on other times they proper ri the piss out of me.
At present I take THREE different medicines. At 3 different times of the day, to achieve 3 different things. I will get through this, it won't be easy, it will take time but I can also use my troubles and consequent wins over them, I may help others that are far much worse off.
So I am committing the next 3 years, before I am 50 years old, to make £3000 for three areas that need help, over 30 months and thirty fundraising initiatives.
We want to help the ‘Mind’ and champion these charities;
https://www.corbymind.org.uk/ &
https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/campaigns/mental-health-awareness-week
We wish to help the body beat common diseases and will sponsor these charities;
https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/#/ &
https://www.bhf.org.uk
And will sponsor initiatives that enrich the soul;
http://www.lakelandshospice.org.uk, a local hospice that helps cancer patients and their families, will become a patron and fundraising partner for the duration of the project.
We wish to spread equally amongst local initiatives that provide respite and palliative care.
So that is why I am launching 30 over 3 years... Can you help?
Thanks, Jimmy
From October 1st 2018 till 30th May 2021 I am hosting and promoting thirty fund raising activities that will help us all.
I will be doing 30 tasks by July 31st/August 1st of 2021 ... I aim to raise £3000.
I wanna do 10 events over 3 years... £1000 each year.. Sounds doable right?
