… says ‘Travesty’ author Hayden Bradford!
When Melbourne man Hayden Bradford was diagnosed with depression in 2009,he was fired by his employer and told by various doctors to exercise his brain as much as possible to help retrain brain cells. And so he took their advice and wrote a novel, Travesty ($24.99, Dennis Jones & Associates), which is finally due for release in November.
Drawing on scenarios that made him laugh as a way to stimulate creativity, Hayden crafted the story of a 55 year old man named Travesty, still living with his parents, who has a sudden accident and gets delivered to Heaven. The ironic thing is, Travesty doesn’t believe in God. Travesty is a light hearted story, which is told with lots of humour. The writing of it has assisted with Hayden’s treatment.
Working in line with what psychiatrists and neuron-psychologists have told him about retraining brain cells, Hayden has also developed a popular horse racing website based on his ex-military Intelligence analytical skills. This analysis also stimulates brain activity, and has made Hayden sought after for his insight into horse racing. Since the 1st January 2014, he has achieved a 78% return on profit.
Living with depression is an ongoing battle, but it’s Hayden’s hope that by sharing his own story, others won’t feel alone. His book, Travesty, will be available 1 November at all good book stores and online.
Hayden Bradford is now available for interview. He is an ex-stockman, ex-military man, and ex-corporate man, after being fired when he told his employer he had depression. Hayden is one of many Australians who battle depression, and is now classed as treatment resistant. He lives in Melbourne with his wife and two children.
