Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day. Sometimes the content shared on days like this can be overwhelming or difficult to read.

It's OK to feel this way.
It's OK to not post anything.
It's OK to log off.
Do what's right for you 💚

One adult in six have a common #MentalHealth problem. Yet there is still a strong stigma around mental health.

Talking about mental health can reduce stigma - and make it easier for people to reach out and get the support they need 🗣️💚

You've hit the nail on the head. Thanks for your honest assessment of the current state of young people's mental health support @romankemp.

We're 100% behind your call for the government to put Mental Health Support Teams in ALL schools.

Young people deserve better.

[YoungMinds @YoungMindsUK]

We support @romankemp’s call for the Government to commit to a 100% rollout of Mental Health Support Teams in schools. Proper support needs to be in place for all young people who need it. Thank you Roman for bravely sharing your story and for shining a light on what so many young people are going through.

[Good Morning Britain @GMB]

'If there is a 50:50 chance that your child is going to receive proper mental health care, if you had two children, how do you decide which one gets the help?'

@romankemp urges the government to commit to mental health support in 100% of schools, rather than their 36% target.

[Talking Mental Health @TalkingMHealth]

We couldn't agree more with @romankemp Mental health support should be accessible to ALL children. #MentalHealth

[Marco Ricci @MarcoJRicci]

Mental health stigma persists. And a lack of open dialogue prevents people from seeking help.

So I founded @TalkingMHealth.

To explore mental health through a lens of curiosity, to encourage conversation, and to help save lives.

It's time to change the conversation.
