2023 Hike for Mental Health
Our 12th Annual hike up Mount Washington. On August 26 I will hike with many to summit of this 6,288 ft mountain.
All for awareness and funds for Brain Behavior Research.
At this point in my life I have met, said goodbye and live with, and know many struggling with depression, mental health problems, substance abuse b/c of depression, bipolar, etc. It’s an endless list and it is…
Invisible.
Personally, I am driven by the struggle and loss of my Mom.
She was hysterical, sensitive, incredibly thoughtful and beautiful. She was to me, the most loving and sacrificial Human I’ve ever known. Yet her struggle was ignored and misdiagnosed. She suffered much most of her life. When she died I became
Un-silent.
1 in 4 are affected.
Please help me to help those we LOVE.
1 in 4 families is affected by mental illness.
