Chris Anderson is rollerblading across Canada to raise $10,000 for the Canadian Mental Health Association
Chris Anderson spent years as a kid struggling through school and battling mood swings, hyperactivity, attention deficit disorder and dyslexia.
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit and the country went into stretches of lockdowns and restrictions, Mr. Anderson saw the impact that had on people who were already struggling. “The suicide rate went up for young people with bipolar and other mental illnesses,” he said in an interview. He set out from his home in Ladysmith, B.C., on May 1 and hopes to arrive in St. John’s by Oct. 10. His mother and daughters have accompanied him in a van at various times, but he is frequently alone.
