“In 2018 I was given a diagnosis of N.E.A.D (Non-Epileptic Attack Disorder) which is a form of

non-epileptic seizure. This was a frightening time for both me and my close family and

friends, but I was fortunate to get a diagnosis fairly quickly. In my case, N.E.A.D was the

result of an incredible amount of change in a very short space of time and putting my body

under an insane amount of stress.

As a result, I developed very high (and at times) unbearable levels of anxiety. I have worked

hard over the recent months on myself, seen a psychologist, and maintained a healthy

lifestyle. I recently started back at work and am in the process of finding my independence

and confidence again. I’ve started my “A Fit Mind” social media channels to promote

N.E.A.D and other mental health conditions, help remove some stigma around mental

health (particularly in Men) and promote the benefits living an active and healthy lifestyle

can have on both your physical and mental wellbeing.
