Hi Guys... I'm Arthur 😀 · The Art Of Self-Connection

Hi Guys... I'm Arthur 😀

I am a new member here and looking forward to watching this space grow.

I live in Noosaville on the Sunshine Coast, I am a truck driver by day and a passionate mental health ambassador all the time.

I have had an interesting journey to my current status of self connection, it took a lot of work and a lot of pain to get here but heres the short version of my journey.

I loved football (soccer), watching it, playing it, talking about it and then one day at 15 that stopped. The passion died overnight. Over the next few months I found myself losing friends, isolating myself and becoming disinterested in everything. My grades slipped and I ultimately was fully disconnected.

My mum took me to the doctors and I was diagnosed with depression with suicidal tendencies.

2 options...

Medication or Therapy. I chose the latter.

Thats where the journey starts.

I noticed patterns, I'd fall in the dark hole everytime I achieved something. Finishing School, Achieving a career milestone, getting engaged, getting married, building a house, finishing uni.

These big milestones felt like a journey up a mountain only for me to jump off back into the dark hole.

I needed something to focus on, to stay busy and aligned, and when my marriage ended, partly because of my own mental health challenges 15 years after being diagnosed my world crumbled, well it completely collapsed.

That's where my self-healing journey started.

2 books, 1 epic adventure and reconnecting with myself, others and my purpose.

Im here to grow, learn and connect.

Peace and Love

Arthur
