Determined by the culture you grew up in, you will increase your distress and feeling of isolation. These fears are often reinforced by the negative way that people experiencing mental health problems are shown on TV, in films and by the media. Now pay attention please. Many of us know that there are the majority of reasons someone might commit a violent crime, and factors like drug and alcohol misuse are way more gonna be the cause of violent behaviour.

Proportion of people living with a mental health problem who commit a violent crime is extremely small. Since of the fear and stigma of being seen as dangerous, plenty of people are still worried about talking about how they’re feeling, or seeking help.
Mental health problems can affect the way you think, feel and behave.
They affect around one in four people in Britain, and range from common mental health problems, like depression and anxiety, to more rare problems just like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
Mental health problem can feel just as bad, or worse, as any other physical illness -only you can not see it. You may feel that it’s a sign of weakness, or that you are ‘losing your mind’, and that it’s only intending to get worse, if you become unwell. You might be scared of being seen as ‘mad’ by other people in your lifetime.
