Hi everyone!

I am very lucky to have been chosen to be a part of this beautiful fundraising event, where on the 28th of March I will be sitting in a little square, reflecting and remaining completely silent! (send me good luck, I'll need it to battle the vocal stims!) 

As you might know, I have struggled with my mental health for a long time especially prior to being diagnosed with ADHD. I still have a lot of trouble managing it, the executive dysfunction, trying to navigate social situations and to keep myself motivated and happy enough to get up in the mornings with that dopamine deficit! 

For every donation, I will write you a letter or send you a poem while I am in the challenge and get it to you after. All the proceeds go towards this amazing platform. I have been following them for over a year now and have learned so much about the people in our local community that makes me feel, and I'm sure many others too, less alone. 

Thank you to everyone who is supporting me this year in raising funds across the board, these are are really important causes to me. 

 I think this is a great way to raise awareness and money for a cause that supports people like me in those situations early on. 

Any amount is welcome. I appreciate you so much!
