Help me create a mentally healthier world
I'm standing up to join Team Black Dog to turn ground breaking research into life saving action.
Mental illness affects 1 in 5 Australians every year, with the most common being depression and anxiety. Mental illness doesn’t discriminate. It affects people from all walks of life — individuals, families, workplaces and communities.

My Updates
Temptation
Sunday 30th Oct This month there has only been 3 times I have been tempted to cheat. I haven't had a drop of alcohol but I desperately wanted to after a couple of bad days at work. Thankfully the zero alcohol stuff sufficed and the feeling passed pretty quickly 😁 Share
Over Halfway
Tuesday 18th Oct Halfway happened without me really noticing. It's been pretty easy so far.
Celebration
Wednesday 12th Oct Chris officially finished his Bachelor of Psychological Science today. He scored 100% in his final exam and I am so proud. Traditionally we celebrate with alcohol. It will be interesting navigating this coming weekend of celebrations sober. Share
Beer Pong
Saturday 8th Oct Last night I played beer pong and did shots of warm coke cola. It was a first and it was fun. Dat sugar high. Turns out you can participate in drinking games sober. Who knew? Share
Day 1 Success
Sunday 2nd Oct Day 1 went swimmingly. No temptation despite the pub crawl through 7 pubs. Apparently Day 3 is the most difficult for seasoned drinkers. I have my alcohol-free beer to get me through. Chris is supposedly giving up today but he has a full growler of tropical pale in the engel and it is grand final day 😂 Share
October 1st
Sunday 25th Sep On the first of October we're meeting friends at the local brewery. I've never been to a brewery and not had a beer. It will be worth it to see so much money raised for Black Dog.Thank you to my Sponsors
