Mental Health Week
 |
| The Daisies in my Garden |
The daisy is the symbol for Mental Health wellness. Mental illness can happen to anyone at any time. Understanding, support and early treatment, know that mental illness like any illness exists and should not be dismissed by the sufferer or family and friends. You may not know or understand what is happening to the sufferer, and expecting the sufferer to "snap out of it" is just not going to happen. Be an advocate, actively insist on treatment and support. Actively assure the sufferer that they have support and that the illness is that, an illness, and not them.
This week is Mental Health Week it is an annual national (Canada) event that takes place in the first week of May. The theme for this years Mental Health week is Mental Health for All.
