What the petition asks

Mental health affects a large number of people living within society. Its symptoms are not always visible to those around sufferers. Even though these symptoms are not as visible as many other illnesses, they can be just as devastating.
I myself suffer with severe depression,anxiety and PTSD.
Mental health is a very large umbrella that holds many different diagnosis. No two people are the same in the way they suffer with their mental health.
Symptoms include:
Low moods
Feeling tearful
Feeling helpless and hopeless
Very low self esteem
The list goes on.

Too many lives are being lost to suicide including those of children. Many are also self harming. The wait is far to long for mental health services. Some do not even have services available, this has to change.
