Help Entrepreneurs with Depression!

WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP RIGHT NOW

In any given year, 1 in 5 North Americans will personally experience a mental health problem or illness including depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders and addictive behaviors. We're here to put a stop to this. Entrepreneur's Thriving was founded to advocate for, educate and support entrepreneurs living with depression as a specific mental health issue.
 
HELP SUPPORT ENTREPRENEURS STRUGGLING WITH MENTAL HEALTH RECLAIM THEIR LIVES!
 
SUMMARY

Depression doesn't choose a gender, age, country or job; it affects everyone and anyone. Right now, 3 in 10 entrepreneurs are living with this illness. It's quite possible, and very likely that you know at least one person affected and see its negative effects.

Even more entrepreneurs are being affected by the challenges they face during COVID 19.
 
There are an estimated 8.8 million entrepreneurs living with depression in North America (up to 200 million worldwide). Of course, that only accounts for the courageous ones who brave the stigma and report their condition. Even Entrepreneur's Thriving's own founder Damian M. Reid lived with MDD (Major Depressive Disorder) since his teens. It was his personal experience that inspired him to help others overcome their own struggles.
 
Entrepreneurs are some of the most overworked and underpaid. They work longer hours than the typical 9 to 5 and don't usually pay themselves first. Since their business is their baby, they also put their blood, sweat, and tears, and then some, into it. But hard-working can also turn into an obsession, and when goals created don't actualize, the disappointment can be debilitating. With so many hours spent at work, freedom to spend more time with friends and family on the things that truly matter moves further and further away.
 
Did you know that depression is the most common illness among those who die from suicide, with approximately 60% suffering from this condition? In addition, entrepreneurs are underinsured and lack access to disability and employment Insurance benefits, which means even if they need help, they can't always afford it. But YOU can help.
