Fund more support for mental health.

What the petition asks
I want more funding for services to provide more support to families that deal with mental health. This needs to be spent on more places to access, and more things to do such as activities and social group days for people to help them understand life and life skills. Also more acceptance in schools.
People seek help from local authorities for years and receive diagnosis but with absolutely no support. I know many people are taking their lives and lashing out in other ways because they’re at war with themselves each day. There is no support given. I feel that this is a major issue that is not addressed. People don’t ask for these disabilities, but because it’s not physical it’s the most unaccepted.
