Mental health is something that is extrremly important to use here are Garage Grafix and we are always trying to think of new ways to try and help people with mental health and try raise awareness for this silent killer.

Mental helath statistics taken from the Mind Website show that...

• 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem of some kind each year in England.
• 1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (like anxiety and depression) in any given week in England.

• People reporting self-harm went up by 62% between the years 2000–2014 (that means it more than doubled).
• People reporting having had suicidal thoughts within the past year went up by 30% between the years 2000–2014.
• The number of people who self-harm or have suicidal thoughts is rising faster than the number of people experiencing mental health problems overall.
