Chris Hack

Mental Health advocate and freelance blogger

My name's Chris, i'm rapidly approaching my 40th year on this beautiful but damaged planet and I have no real idea where my life is going. One of the biggest issues I have to deal with is my ongoing mental illness. Depression, anxiety or whatever else it is that I suffer with. I'm not actually sure as I've never actually officially been diagnosed. Although I do get to chug a cocktail of drugs down every morning with my breakfast to help me cope throughout the day. Another way that I cope with the ups and downs of my ongoing condition is by blogging. It's something that allows me to empty all of those often complicated thoughts and feelings from my somewhat messed up mind, and hopefully by doing so it might help one or two others that may be going through a similar experience to me. As well as being a firm believer in ending the stigma surrounding mental health I'm also a huge television and radio buff, particularly the more geeky side of things as well as a keen gamer.
