About World Mental Health Day

World Mental Health Day aims to raise awareness of mental health issues around the world and to mobilize efforts in support of mental health. According to the World Health Organization, in 2019, 970 million people globally were living with a mental health disorder, with anxiety and depression the most common. Mental health conditions can cause difficulties in all aspects of life, including emotional well-being, relationships, physical health, and ability to function at work or school. Left untreated, these issues can lead to chronic stress, social isolation, and an increased risk of other health complications. Creating a range of solutions such as therapy, medication, education, community support, and lifestyle changes, can help individuals find care that suits their unique needs, ultimately leading to better mental health outcomes and a healthier society.
