Turns out not everybody has 15 tabs open in their brain at once.

I got diagnosed with ADHD at the end of last year and honestly, it explained a lot.

Up until then, I’d always thought ADHD just meant kids who couldn’t sit still in class or were constantly bouncing off the walls. I had no idea adults could even be diagnosed with it.

What shocked me most was realising that a lot of the “symptoms” are things we just brush off as normal adult life.

Overthinking everything. Starting ten tasks and finishing two. Walking into a room and forgetting why you’re there.
Struggling to switch off from the constant mental noise.
Feeling exhausted from doing what looks like “simple” things.

I genuinely thought everybody lived like that and it was normal.

In policing, it actually helped me. You become hyper aware which allows you to notice tiny changes in behaviour.
You think three steps ahead and prepare for worst-case scenarios before they happen.

It made me good at the job.

But what I didn’t realise was that my brain never stopped.

Even at home, in silence and even when trying to sleep.

I spent years thinking I was just stressed, lazy, broken, too intense, bad at relaxing… whatever label fit at the time.

Now I realise my brain was running a marathon every single day while pretending it was fine.

And I know I’m not the only bloke who’s gone through life thinking:
“This is just how everyone feels.”

Maybe this is your reminder that it isn’t 💙

I was out doing errands when a crew went past me lights and sirens and I had that little ni**le in my belly that made me miss that feeling. I miss working with good mates and knowing that whatever the shift threw at you it would all be ok because you were working alongside someone who you could trust entirely. I don’t however miss the abuse, the sadness, the heartbreak of the hard jobs. So to anyone working tonight, be safe and take care of yourself 💙

Honestly didn’t expect my picture of Neale Daniher and Jai Arrow to resonate the way it did.

Appreciate every share, comment and message.
I think it just shows how many people are fighting battles nobody sees đź’™

So happy with how these turned out! I’ve had these made up to test the colours to make sure no issues - should I do a full order? Let me know below.

Yesterday, Australia lost a fighter.

Neale Daniher was told the average life expectancy after an MND diagnosis was just 27 months.

He fought for 13 years.

13 years of refusing to give in to “the beast”, as he referred to it.
13 years of showing courage, humour, resilience and heart in the face of something so cruel.
13 years of turning unimaginable pain into purpose.

In that time, he helped raise over $117 million for MND research so that one day, others may not have to face the same battle.

Now another fighter, Jai Arrow, begins his own battle with the beast.

This image isn’t about passing on a burden.
It’s about showing that no one fights alone.

Rest easy, Neale.
Your impact will outlive us all.

Some days I honestly feel unstoppable. I’m motivated, focused on goals and full of ideas for how I can keep growing Unstable. It feels like I’m back on track and I’m finally getting my life together.

Then out of nowhere, the next day hits and I want to shut the world out and disappear for a while.

And the strange thing is that there’s often no big reason, no trigger or trauma causing it. I just feel completely exhausted mentally. I start to overthink everything. Question what I’m doing, wondering if I’m even getting anywhere. And if I’m being brutally honest, some days I consider just closing down this page because who wants to sit and listen to some nobody dribble on 🤦‍♂️

I think a lot more people live on this roller coaster than they admit.

So if you’re feeling on top of the world today, enjoy it.

And if, like me, today feels heavy, don’t beat yourself up for it.

You’re not broken. You’re human.

People assume that once I left the Queensland Police Service with a work related injury, I’d be taken care of.

That I’d get a pension, support, treatment and can finally focus on recovery.

The reality is very different.

The moment you put your hand up and admit you’re struggling, your life becomes paperwork, assessments, reports, phone calls, reviews and endless hoops you’re expected to jump through just to prove that you’re not okay.

You go from serving your community to constantly justifying why you deserve help.

I served Queensland for 10 years as a police officer. Like many first responders, I saw things that stay with you forever. Eventually the job caught up with me and when I finally asked for help, I genuinely believed the system would support those who had spent years supporting everyone else.

Instead, it feels like the system is designed to wear you down.

Meanwhile, we constantly see headlines about enormous government spending and politicians claiming expenses that most ordinary Australians couldn’t even comprehend, while injured first responders are left fighting through bureaucracy simply to survive.

earns roughly $390-$430k a year and has claimed over HALF A MILLION dollars in the first quarter of this year. On track to cost the taxpayer almost 2.5 million in wages and expenses this year alone. earns between $360-$390k a year and has claimed almost THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND in the first quarter. Again, on track to cost the taxpayer close to 1.5 million this year. The disability pension (if you can jump enough hoops and be approved), for a medically retired police officer suffering lifelong PTSD, depression, anxiety…

$27,000 a YEAR! Equivalent to just FOUR days of Penny Wongs tax payer money.

This post isn’t about sympathy.

It’s about awareness.

Because unless you’ve lived it, most people genuinely have no idea how hard these systems make life for people already struggling.

Mental health campaigns tell people to “speak up” and “ask for help.”

What they don’t tell you is what can come after that.
