I believe there should be an easier way for young people to access mental health services.

I believe there should be an easier way for young people to access mental health services.

The Issue

Many young people have a war with their mental health every year. Thousands are even put into inpatient care as they become an increasing risk to themselves. Some children realise they have a mental disorder or something else wrong with them. The young person may feel scared to tell their parents in fear for the response. This means many young members of society may face self harm, eating disorders, depression, personality disorders and many other challenges without help they have the rights to. I have been in this situation and due to my parents negative response I did not speak out again and struggles every day for many years. If we win the petition I hope for another service like mixed.org's web councilling to be set up since there are many referrals and not enough councillors on mixed.orgs  page. This may prevent children who are a danger to themselves or others the help and care they urgently require. If we do lose however, many children will continue on in their battle with themselves. Please sign today!
