Victor Hugo Young
Motto:Failure is not the end. Failure is not even the beginning of the end. Failure is the end of the beginner.
Victor Hugo Young, a dedicated writer and historian, has faced the daily struggles of living with chronic anxiety for over two decades while nurturing a loving relationship. He transitioned from a career in journalism to focus on historical research, earning his Ph.D. in History from the University of Oxford in 2018. Aware of the hurdles that chronic anxiety can place on personal relationships, Victor and his partner have made a pledge to stand by each other through thick and thin.
Together, they reside in the picturesque town of Bath, England, where they find solace in its rich history and vibrant community. In response to their own challenges, Victor and his partner penned "Anxiety and Togetherness" in 2023, aiming to offer guidance and support to others who might be navigating similar waters. They wanted to assure families facing mental health issues that they are not isolated in their struggles.
Victor's wish is that by opening up about their journey, they can encourage more open conversations around mental health and inspire couples and mental health professionals alike to seek out better strategies for coping. Additionally, Victor frequently speaks at local events and workshops in Bath, sharing insights into how historical figures have also dealt with personal adversities, weaving together past and present narratives to foster understanding and empathy.
