Lauren's Trek to Happiness 2015
Story
Hello Everybody!!
I am so excited, yet slightly nervous to be undertaking the Black Dog Trek to Happiness this year! I will be travelling to Bhutan from 8th-19th October, 2015 to embark on the Black Dog Trek to Happiness through Inspired Adventures. My aim is to raise awareness of mental health whilst at the same time raising money for Black Dog Institute.
The Black Dog Institute is a not-for-profit organisation and world leader in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder. One in five Australians are affected by mental illness every year, with one of the most common of these being depression.
Mental illness can be crippling and isolating. It is also treatable. However, only 45% of people with a mental illness will actually seek appropriate treatment. The money raised for Black Dog Institute will go towards saving lives by empowering communities through education, reducing the stigma of mental health as well as providing innovative, effective and accessible treatment strategies for those living with a mental illness.
My aim is to increase awareness of mental health issues and reduce the stigma associated with mental health in our community. I am very passionate about this cause as I have depresssion and anxiety so I understand how crippling it can be. I hope that with your generous donation we can help put an end to the negative stigma associated with mental health.
