Dan Hughes

Creative Director | Administration

Early on in Dan’s life he struggled with family abuse as a child, when his grandfather passed away in 1977, growing up in a household of constant anxiety and physical abuse, Dan Committed suicide at 10 years old and was brought back by paramedics. In 1984 Dan’s manic depression was getting worse and was exacerbated by more physical and emotional abuse stemming from an alcoholic codependency relationship which led to his PTSD, chronic fatigue syndrome and eventually Dan committed suicide again at the age of 27.

Dan was found unresponsive in his garage from carbon monoxide poisoning and flat lined in the Summer of 1992.

To make matters worse in 1998 a late diagnosis of Adult Attention Deficit Disorder (AADD) and was heavily medicated with prescription medications such as Adderall and Ritalin, but throughout all of this NO consultation or remediation through therapy was ever offered nor was any counseling. A drastic change needed to occur, and that change was self-discovery and depression anxiety (trigger) identification.

Since then, Dan has never attempted suicide, as an advocate for military and current enlisted personnel and instructs and shares with others about the destructive nature of suicide itself and suicide prevention through consultation.
