Having a mental illness does not define you :-)
This weeks video is on how I went from the couch (I couldn't even run to the end of the road) to completing a Marathon in 8 months! It was a crazy adventure but I'm so pleased I did it! I break down the journey and how I built up along the way. There are so many aspects that can help make this journey a little easier and it's one I think so many people can achieve :-)
I am not a professional these are just my experiences. You should always seek advice from your doctor before taking on any kind of physical activities.

About me
Hi everyone, I’m Dominique.
I'm sharing my mental health journey and my adventures along the way. I was diagnosed with depersonalisation and derealisation several years ago and want to raise awareness amongst all the fun things I get up to. I’m not a professional and these are just my own experiences but feel it’s important to share.
