My story
I'm a 42 year old male with an extensive history of historical rape, depression and anxiety and after being medically discharged from the Army in 1997, and no path forwards, it became a life of destruction, no family support and learnt the hard way, my love for the Army had been ripped from me due to my deteriation of sight in my left eye. I've never accomplished anything and felt good about it, the mental monsters pulled me down and the fact I hid away my pain through drink and drugs it wasn't the wisest of choices I made but it was my escape, i did eventually stop this, the best choices I've made and I'm proud of myself. Over the Years I've become stronger in person, it's taken me over 20 years to eventually seek the help of Revival and the counselling sessions I've been working through for nearly 2 years now, I've become very confident, the times I was in a dark place Revival showed me the light, many times I could of pulled the plug, Covid and the lock down didn't stop the sessions as this was done over the phone and in these times I was at my worse, I couldn't think of a better way to say thankyou than raise money for them. I've built the courage to speak out about my past and with that courage built and determination, I want to achieve personal goals. I've been put down by many over my lifetime and I've slowly filtered out all the negatives and grew a strong mindset to achieve so much more. Many have inspired me, taught me and pushed me. Today and the future that lays ahead of me is thriving in positive ways I've never experienced before, I wish to raise awareness and support to 2 Great Charities in my heart, raise money for them while smashing goals.
I'll be doing a 24km march across the Breacon Beacons with a half way point then hitting Jacobs ladder with a 35lb bergen, this is not including food and water which will be 3ltrs.
The cut off time for the total 24km is 4hours 10mins I'm hoping to hit this goal.
Thankyou for your support. Jeremy
