Mental Kilter was an online support community that focused on using physical fitness to help combat addiction and mental illness. I had been a part of the community for several years. Unfortunately the community outgrew it’s capacity, and the creator no longer had the ability to support it. Regardless, I loved the mission and support from others navigating similar waters.
I wrote a testimony for them in 2017. It is no longer available on the original site, but can be found reproduced here.
