Don't Be Afraid To Talk About Your Problems
"Don't Be Afraid To Talk About Your Problems". Those were the words of the late Jack Nathan pictured here. A vital young man who wrestled with anxiety and depression who passionately championed talking about mental illness to let others know they were not alone.
His parents David and Bradi Nathan and his sister Drew are keeping his mission alive.
David and Bradi joined me live on The Debbie Nigro Show said, "Jack left us suddenly and accidentally on 7/3/20 at the age of 19, due to fentanyl poisoning. He was a survivor of mental illness- not a victim."
Before passing, Jack had created “HappyJacksWorld” to raise awareness and fund access to mental health resources.
Happy Jack IS Jack Nathan.
In his honor, his family is continuing his mission to continue supporting those who struggle with mental health. On Happy Jacks World website you'll find merchandise with the signature Happy Jack Logo you can purchase to show your support. 15% of each HJ sale is donated.
Jack's parents want to be sure you know we can all make life better for kids like Jack and ask that we all help keep Jack’s legacy and mission alive. I welcome the opportunity to help and share Jacks' message.
I always welcome the opportunity to talk about mental health, a topic that was insanely taboo and 'hush hush' in the years I was growing up watching so many struggle.
To be human is to struggle but some struggle more than others. Thankfully we continue to become educated about the brain and how it works so we can undertstand how to better help others we care about and give them more hope and inspiration.
Happy Jack Donations have been made to the following Foundations in Jack's memory and in their commitment to help all:
Active Minds, Child Mind Institute, Born this Way Foundation, Runway of Dreams, Riley's Dance, JaneStrong, Lean on Me, Denver University, American Cancer Society and Release Recovery Foundation.
