To me 2017 has been the most important year of my life.

At the end of 2016 I was a mess. A couple of years of serious mental illness took its toll and I was standing with one foot in my own grave. I started to ask for help and I got it from so many people around me, professionals as well as friends and total strangers.

My life has changed drastically under 2017 and I have never felt this strong before. So many things that I have done myself and so many things others have done for tiny me makes this year the most important year of my life. And I have plans, hopes and ideas for 2018 – things that will continue this crazy journey from the deepest darkness to standing tall with a new love for life!

I would describe my 2017 as a crazy ride and now I am ready for 2018, where I will pay things forward.

Best wishes and love from Sweden
