Let’s not define our health

MENTAL MAY SHAVE

Monday 3rd May

LETS NOT DEFINE OUR HEALTH

4 WEEK CHALLENGE - mental may 

Let’s participate in a challenge for holistic health.

How much is a pack of cigarettes? That case you bought on the weekend? Cheeky nose dive? Just one slap? That outfit you needed? The cheat meal? That gym membership you don’t use?

Whatever you choose to treat ya self, let’s put it towards mental may. 

I’ll be shaving my head at the end of may #freebritney to fundraise for the following below:

Many people are affected by cancer, the challenge of loosing your mental, physical abilities whilst suffering through disassociation through loosing a part of yourself wondering what’s next?

A cancer diagnosis can affect the emotional health of patients, families, and caregivers. Common feelings during this life-changing experience include anxiety, distress, and depression. Roles at home, school, and work can be affected. It's important to recognize these changes and get help when needed.

A mental health diagnosis is as challenging. People are affected by mental health, chemical imbalances that are poorly acknowledged, gaslighted and discussed. Day to day decisions, simple tasks, basic hygiene and care can be affected through simple reactionary and genetic behaviours. 

Mental illnesses, in general, are thought to be caused by a variety of genetic and environmental factors:

• Inherited traits. Mental illness is more common in people whose blood relatives also have a mental illness. Certain genes may increase your risk of developing a mental illness, and your life situation may trigger it.
• Environmental exposures before birth. Exposure to environmental stressors, inflammatory conditions, toxins, alcohol or drugs while in the womb can sometimes be linked to mental illness.
• Brain chemistry. Neurotransmitters are naturally occurring brain chemicals that carry signals to other parts of your brain and body. When the neural networks involving these chemicals are impaired, the function of nerve receptors and nerve systems change, leading to depression and other emotional disorders.

As my family, friends and I have experienced the hardship and healing throughout our journeys, this go fund is raising money and will be donated between multiple charities with ethical purpose: please read about the charities below,.
