The Issue

The pandemic has hit a lot of people hard not just financially but mentally. A lot of people who already suffer from mental health problems have been hit hard from this pandemic with little to nobody to turn to for help, because most counselling services are usually on a face to face basis which can really help someone who suffers from mental health problems but now there via the telephone and you still have to be put on a waiting list which can exceed well over 6 weeks.

In order for people’s well-being and mental health to stop deteriorating a lot more needs to be done with the mental health service, a lot more facilities need to opened to help deal with the mental health crisis and the waiting list to needs to be a lot shorter than 6 weeks to see a counsellor/therapist because suicide is a massive risk factor in the United Kingdom with people who already suffer from mental health problems. A lot of people have lost family members since this pandemic started which really is a horrible thing to happen and the last thing this country needs when this pandemic is over is a major mental health crisis in which can be avoided if the right things are put into place.

I’m urging the uk government to really make a change for the people of the United Kingdom that suffer from mental health issues so they can start to lead a normal a better way of living .
