Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

I’m sure many people are aware of how life changing mental health can be
It’s not like a broken leg you can’t see the damage you can not bandage someone’s feelings and thoughts.
It’s not a stigma its a real life situation.
It needs addressing.People need the right help and support&treatment.

People who don’t understand the effects of mental illness need to be educated.
They need to learn that beating depression, anxiety, and serious mood disorders is not just a case of eating healthily, going for a run or drinking lots of water. It’s sometimes a case of not beating it at all, but just learning to cope and overcome. They need to learn that medication can be helpful and not shameful.They need to comprehend that sometimes mental illness can hit you so hard that it’s a challenge.
