Almost 1 in 5 Canadians who needed mental health support didn’t reach out because they were uncomfortable talking about their struggles. Despite growing awareness around mental health, many people continue to mask their struggles due to fear of judgment, discrimination, or social exclusion. In fact, 60% of people with a mental health problem or illness won’t seek help for fear of being labelled.

Speaking up, seeking help, and supporting others saves lives. 💚
