The National Institutes of Health (NIH, 2024) reports that 57.8 million adults live with some form of mental illness. The severity of a mental illness can vary from person to person. Some individuals can perform daily tasks, including work, with mental illness, and some people may qualify for disability due to their mental illness.

As everyone knows, mental health relates to our social, psychological, and emotional well-being. It affects our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, affecting what we can do to manage stress, communicate with others, and make decisions.

That's why i'm starting a petition for mental health awareness because I believe everyone deserves support and understanding. Many people face some anxiety, depressions, or any kind of heavy struggles and don’t know where to turn for help. By raising awareness, we can create a community that prioritizes mental health and ensures no one feels alone in their struggles. Serenities, together, we can make a difference.
