Mental health is a topic very close to my heart. I have battled my way through mental health since I was a very young child. I went through things I never hope anyone else goes through and I went through those alone because I thought I shouldn't speak up and pass my problems onto someone else. I was infact wrong! It is actually good to speak up and tell your closes friends or family or eventually in my case a counsellor, that something is bothering you. I want to stand up and represent mental health for Solent because it is something I am so passionate about and I'm confident I can make Individuals understand that is ok not to be ok.
