First of all, I'm not going to lie here...but the #BloggerstakeonAfrica project may be getting cancelled already after only a few weeks of planning.
Not because African Impact pulled out.
Not because we changed our minds (We're gutted!)
Not because of support issues (And those of you that supported us, if it does get cancelled your money will be returned as there was no bank account tied to the gofundme page...it will be refunded don't worry...you can always send it straight to a charity)
But because of hate.
...And I am not Ashamed".
When you have a mental illness, reaching out and facing up to it can be terrifying. Admitting it to friends and family can be just as scary.
Whilst many are lucky and have a good supportive structure around them, some have to deal with small minded comments. Sure they may have good intentions, but people that have never experienced mental health won't be able to understand how frustrating and upsetting some comments sound.
