IMPORTANT: As you may have noticed I have not been focusing on Gone2Far and my campaign for a couple of months now,and I thought I should explain that I am recovering from a lot of stuff at the moment,and want to focus 110% on my mental health.However I can announce that I am back and determined to raise awareness about the issues that thousands of people face.

I'm Emily.I'm 15 years old Gone2Far is my campaign,set up to help teenagers not only deal with having mental health issues and getting to the point where they're ready for recovery,but to help deal with the stigma and "jokes" that come attached to mental health.
There are many misconceptions about mental health in society today,and the shame and sterotypes can often make a person suffering feel even MORE hopeless and ashamed,this is why mental health stigma desperatley needs to be addressed and people educated.
So many teenagers are feeling like they don't deserve recovery or to get help for their issues and I hope that my campaign can reach out to somebody to help them speak up about their pain,instead of turning to self-destruction as a means to cope.
My campaign is based on the things that I have faced and the things that made (are making!) my recovery process even harder (eg mental health stigma),because when I went through everything,I had no idea what to do with my emotions or how to cope.And I feel like most of that is due to not being educated on mental health enough and to there not being enough awareness out there.
My vision for this campaign is to help as many people as possibile and to share my story as much as I can.
At the moment I'm just really trying to spread my message and raise awareness about my campaign so that I can get interviews etc that'll help me say what I need to say.I don't want people to see this and to see me and to think of G2F as just another clique.I'm still on my own personal journey.I don't know everything and I'm still learning about how to deal with my own personal struggles.But this is about hope,and love and you don't need a degree to spread that right?
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my website.It means a lot.I hope you will have a look at my blog and check out some of the other pages.As well as supporting Gone2Far in the future.Thank you! *Virtual Hugs* Remember you are NEVER alone.Stay strong! x
