Kians AMC skydive

So I am doing another skydive this time I want to raise money for a charity that is massively close to my heart.

I wanted to go a little into my story so people can really understand what andysmanclub is really capable of doing and hopefully inspire some people to give it a go.

I have been suffering from anxiety, panic attacks and depression for almost 5 years now. Don’t get me wrong I have had the odd couple ‘good’ years in between but even then it creeps up on you in between.

I started going to andysmanclub in early October of 2023 at the lowest point of my life, I wasn’t eating and spent every second of every day worrying about my future or silly little things I couldn’t control. I was throwing up with panic and ended up putting myself in A&E once because my heart was bouncing out my chest, it’s something I’ve never experienced bofore. I was so low I really couldn’t see 2024 in my future Nevermind the rest of my life .it’s not that I wanted to end my life because I really didn’t it’s more I wanted to end the suffering and pain I was feeling. It’s really crazy what worrying about little things can do to you. I decided enough was enough and thanks to my dad, dragged myself to andysmanclub to try talk about my problems and everything running through my mind. Bearing in mind I was not a talker. I was amazed by the support and generosity of every member there, it’s a day I will NEVER forget. I remember getting home that day and eating my first proper meal in 3 days and actually cracked a smile for the time in weeks ! 4 months on I am now a facilitator of andysmanclub batley doing my very best at helping people that was in my situation realise that it really is #okaytotalk. The friendships I have made with other Members are friendships I want to keep forever, I seriously cannot thank them enough.

Don’t get me wrong I’m not close to where I want to be but with the support of andysmanclub I am certain my goals are possible. I massively regret not visiting the club 5 years ago when I first started feeling down. Don’t be like myself and wait to get better. Seek help now and visit one of our clubs on a Monday night at 7pm-9pm

Any donation would mean the absolute world to me, especially knowing the money is going towards helping men just like myself . Thankyou!
