My name is Isabella and I am a twenty-three-year-old
girl from Italy. I suffer from bipolar disorder and have struggled with mental
illness for as far back as I can remember. To this day mental health issues are
still stigmatised, so I knew I had to come out of the shadows, step forward and
help others. My British friends encouraged me to come out of my shell, so I
have chosen to join the London2Brighton Challenge to raise funds for the
Britons and awareness for the Italians. I may be a lost cause!, but I refuse to
accept mental health is, too. Cheers!

L’Italia non ha ancora affrontato la questione più spinosa di sempre: perché la malattia mentale spaventa? Perché chi soffre di disturbi mentali non ha il diritto di camminare a testa alta come qualsiasi altro malato? Ho scelto di partecipare alla London2Brighton Challenge per sensibilizzare l’opinione pubblica.
