“I am a mental health nurse. I have mental health issues myself. I struggled for years with my issues always trying to find that thing which would give me a release from the way my mind works. I used to block out this by using illicit substances. When I got into flying it was like a drug I’d never experienced. Due to this I have been clean for 3 years now and I owe it all to flying, I wish there was space for testimonies from my family to support this. I genuinely dont think I would still be alive without this hobby and since reading these proposals my mental health has dipped (I’m still functioning well enough) but these proposals will kill my hobby and the thing that has managed to keep me well where medication has been unsuccessful. I fail to see how these proposals will make flying UAV’s safer.”
