Why should you seek mental health care?

Updated: Nov 6, 2023

To many people mental illness is embarrassing and seeking mental health care can be scary. Still 20% of the population suffers with mental health issues such as depression and anxiety - many suffer because the process can be overwhelming.


Mental health illness is similar to medical illness in that it can be inherited, brought on by stress, sleep problems or even a medical problem.


It can interfere with your quality of life. It can be shown by someone in other ways such as missing sleep, anger or irritability, social withdrawal, physical symptoms, changes in school or at work- even nightmares.


Seeking help is not something you should be ashamed of or be judged about. You would never shame a diabetic from taking insulin - right?
