Have the courage to exist.
Today, October 10th, is World Mental Health Day and as a cause very close to my heart I am releasing a new range of merch where all proceeds will go to the charity I represent - Young Minds, to help fight for young peopleโs mental health.
In 2014 I made the video โExistential Crisisโ where I dropped the surprisingly profound quote โEmbrace the void and have the courage to existโ. This was a message that in a universe that wonโt give you the answers, itโs up to you give your life meaning in whatever way makes you happy.ย
In the years since uploading this video, Iโve spoken to many people who have told me how those words resonated with them and inspired actions, art (and even a few tattoos) so I thought this would be the perfect way to put some goodness back into the world and give you courage when you need it.
As of now the quote is available as both a simple black (of course) t-shirt:
And a flag for you to pin up on a wall like a poster, raise on a poleย ..or just wear like a cape if you feel like it:
When it comes to mental health I know all too well how difficult it can be just to exist, but days like this where people come together to show support for each other and raise awareness show that none of us are alone. A year on since I posted โDaniel and Depressionโ, where I was open about my struggles with mental health, I feel so much support from people around the world and pride that what I did may have helped others. I encourage anyone reading this who sympathises not to struggle in silence and otherwise to reach out to the ones you love and tell them you are there, it could make all the difference.
I hope that you like the sentiment and please get involved to support a wonderful charity, and as I said in a recent live show - if I can make it through life to this point, so can you.
