Mental Health Issue

The theme of the recently released Summer issue of ThinkTWENTY20 Magazine is Mental Health. It describes a major research project being carried out by numerous universities working together. It also contains some very personal experiences as well as some approaches to dealing with this crisis.  WHO says that “Depression is one of the leading causes of disability. Suicide is the second leading cause of death among 15-29-year-olds. People with severe mental health conditions die prematurely – as much as two decades early – due to preventable physical conditions.  Despite progress in some countries, people with mental health conditions often experience severe human rights violations, discrimination, and stigma.”

These issues need to be addressed and it is hoped this last issue of ThinkTWENTY20 will contribute to the conversation. The issue can be obtained at https://bit.ly/3wZdeS4
