Scarlet's story

Hello everyone,
And for those who don't know my name is scarlet Saxby and today I will tell you a little about my mental health journey and why mental health is so important.
My incredible dad Michael Saxby Is challenging an 190 mile cycle ride in aid of an amazing mental health charity that is mind.
I have struggled with bad mental health issues for around 2 years now. However I was officially diagnosed with severe anorexia nervosa in January 2021.
After 3 weeks in James cook general hospital I was transferred to a psychiatric unit for teenagers for just under half a year.
Due to my experiences I struggle with depression anxiety and PTSD.
I am happy to say that I am well on the road to recovery and doing as well as possible thanks to the help of family, friends, myself and also the mental health charity Mind.
I had councilling with mind for around 7 weeks and It really helped me. They are an incredible charity that help so many young and adult people suffering with mental health issues.
Sometimes I feel like mental health isn't treated in the right ways but personally mind helped me a lot.
So if you are willing we would be very greatfull for you to sponsor my dad, for Mind, with what you can, so the charity can help more wonderful people with their mental health journey.
Thank you.
