Who are we? And what do we want to achieve?
Hey there! My name is Braydan and I have created NEST. The reason that I have created NEST is to help young people like myself enjoy life to the fullest and have the knowledge that I wish I had at the start of my own mental health journey.
I am a 26 year old male from the Western suburbs of Melbourne in Victoria, Australia. Mid way through 2020, I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder after having a serious mental health episode where I had a suicide attempt. Through a lot of hard work and help, I am well on the mend and working hard each and everyday to improve my mental health. I still have my down days thats for sure, but overall I am happy, enjoying every moment life has to offer and working on becoming the best person I can be!
Starting NEST is to help people like myself who have had a rough time of it lately. I wish that I had known about some of the skills and tools that I do now when I was going through my mental health struggles. I have decided to share my experience and hopefully can equip people who are struggling with the skills and tools that I have learnt and continue to learn in my own journey. If this helps one person get through a tough time then it will be mission accomplished.
So please like/share/spread the word and hopefully this can help the people who need it most.
