I have really struggled with my mental health over the last few years. In 2017, I attempted to take my own life. Things were really chaotic and I could not see a way out. I am still recovering from this as I have a lot of trauma from things that happened to me in the past, but I feel so much better now with the help of therapy and medication, like I am on my way to getting my life back.
I would love to be a support worker to help people who have been through similar things as me. I have a passion for helping vulnerable women and children sparked from my own experiences, and I would love to be able to use this passion to help others every day.
It's really uplifting and empowering that people out there want to help me and support my dream. I feel a bit of apprehension around launching my campaign because it is a first for me and I am not sure what to expect. You hear about the generosity of others but this is the first time for me that I have experienced it, it is incredible.
