Invest in more funding for the NHS to deal with mental health issues
I have started this petition with the help of a few friends to raise awareness of the lack of support and help for people suffering from mental health issues.
There have been many young people close to us who have committed suicide, attempted suicide and suffer from serious mental health issues on a daily basis. In our area we have to wait 6 months for an appointment with a councillor or therapist through the NHS. Someone with a physical illness wouldn’t have to wait 6 months so why should someone with mental illness have to wait 6 months. Too many young lives are being lost due to lack of funding and support, this needs to stop!
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
