    How Missing Rope saved my life - Deano's story

    Dean’s story is raw, honest and powerful. Growing up in a traumatic environment, battling alcohol abuse, panic attacks and years of bottled-up pain, Dean reached a moment where he believed life wasn’t worth living. One night he walked into a workshop planning to end his life — but something unexpected stopped him. That moment became the turning point. In this deeply personal conversation, Dean shares his journey through childhood trauma, suicide, addiction, grief and the long road to recovery. He talks openly about the stigma men face around mental health, the importance of speaking up, and how helping others through organisations like Black Dog Ride has given his life new meaning. This episode is about hope, healing, and the power of talking before it’s too late. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out for support. You are not alone.
