My Story

James Gasson

So basically my story and why I’ve chosen to run for mind is very simple really, for years I suffered from depression and anxiety, and even worse suicidal thoughts without going into the full ins and outs of it all I felt not good enough for anyone in my life and at times felt ending it all would be better for everyone in my life. Obviously as I am still about and writing this story I managed to win my battle and with the help of friends family and at times tablets I am over the worst I still have my bad days and I know I could end up back in a bad place at anytime but I have learnt how to control it and when it’s time to get back on the tablets, I need to remember the most important thing in my life my beautiful boys need me and that’s what makes me stronger. That’s why I’m running for Mind I wanted to give back to a charity that help people going through the same struggle I did, whilst running I will be thinking of those that have been lost to mental health but also celebrating those who like myself have come through and won their battle.
