In November 2003, Anthony Hart was on anti-depressants, sleep deprived and suffering from depression. He made a significant attempt on his life. Through a remarkable stroke of luck, he clung onto life and survived. |

In 2003 after several years building a successful career in London, Anthony returned to his home town of Adelaide. A typical 28-year-old male, he was the typical stereotype of an ambitious male seeking his dream job.
Privately he was living a daily battle with anxiety. During October 2003, overwhelming shameful for the way he was feeling and scared of being judged, Anthony continued to ignore the signs. November 7th November 2003, sleep-deprived, suffering with depression and on medication, at 7pm that night he made a significant attempt on his life. A stroke of sheer luck saw him survive. It was during his incredible five year recovery, he discovered and developed a rehabilitation program that today is known as the Lifeback Tracker. |
Numerous close friends and business peers began to ask Anthony to meet for coffee, during which they would confide in him and reveal their own mental health challenges. Each time, he shared his own steps back to good mind health, inspiring and motivating others to follow his own steps in recovery.
