Why I Signed Up
I really hate push-ups, but I hate unsupported mental health struggles more. I've dealt with my fair share of depression and anxiety in my life, and I wouldn't be here without support: the support of my family & friends, the support of medication, and the support of talk therapy.
Mental health awareness and mental illness recovery needs investment, support and funds.
Everyday 2,000 lives are lost to suicide around the world. It's 2,000 lives too many. I know what it is like to feel and think that it's the only viable way deal with mental illness. This is where support can be life-changing, and why it's so needed across Canada.
I'm completing 2,000 push-ups in 23 days to raise awareness and funds for the Canadian Mental Health Association. Please support me as struggle through push-ups from February 5-27.
All proceeds help the Canadian Mental Health Association to support mental illness recovery and foster positive mental health in Canada.
Thank you in advance!
