MENTAL HEALTH

1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year.

There are different types of mental health problems. Anxiety, Stress, Depression, Phobias, OCD, Panic Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Order and Eating Disorders are the most common.

During 2003–2013 in England, 13,972 deaths (28 per cent of general population suicides) were identified as patient suicides

In March 2015, research by Community Care and BBC News found that the funding for NHS trusts to provide mental health services had fallen by 8.25 per cent, £600 million, in real terms over the course of the last parliament (from 2010/11 to 2014/15).

Women were more likely than men to report ever having been diagnosed with a mental health problem.

By 2030, it is estimated that there will be approximately two million more adults in the UK with mental health problems than there were in 2013.

Depression is a roller coaster ride! It has taught me to have boundless compassion for those who are at the bottom of the roller coaster and to share their tears. Speak about your problems…there is always someone who wants to listen.
