Talking Mental Health
One of the biggest issues people face with Mental Health, is the ability to talk and express themselves and their feelings.
This can be due to uncertain and fear, of who those closet (and not so close) to you, will preceive and treat you there after.
Improvements in ending or reducing the stigma of Mental Health, espically Suicide has improved; but still there is those area of misunderstanding, lack of acceptance and mind set of weakness.
A video produced by UK charity Movember, announced a staggering fact that one person will commit suicide / or end their life, around the world every minute. They placed this in comparison to a rugby match, stating based on this statistic; that’s 80 people will die around The World due to Suicide during a rugby match.
