A GUIDE TO MENTAL ILLNESS

A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE

The mission of this website was to present the facts about mental health, but on a global perspective. We wanted to present the views of people across the globe, and to tell people how to receive help regardless of their location.

HOW COULD WE DO THIS?

We had lots of ideas, many of which were built into this website. We contacted charities and organizations across the globe to find out about mental health within their culture and society, and we researched health statistics for several different countries with different cultural and socio-economic backgrounds.
To help people understand the difficulties those with poor mental health may suffer we described the symptoms and stigma attached to each illness.
