If Meet the Depressed isnt about mental health awareness, then lets make it!

Mental health issues like Depression and Anxiety are one of the leading causes of suicide in teens and young adults across the world, 50%, 50 fucking percent, of those suicides are from major depression

People ask why people with depression dont go look for help, Well, about that, Hospital visits for people without healthcare costs so much, enough to make someone making just enough to live on their own, the minimum wage of today, causes bankrupcy.

"well, then get healthcare!" The problem with that, is that the more common companies don't insure suicidal and depressed people because they fear they might commit suicide causing the healthcare company to lose money, which is what they are trying not to do.

"what about therapy?" Again, its expensive, People cant afford it, people cant get help living on minimum wage.

"Get a better job!" Sorry bud, again, takes time, and effort, and can also cause a lot more anxiety for people who can't get the job cause they don't qualify, by the time they are able to get the job, either through college (don't get me started on that), they'd give up.

People need help, and if you want to help people right now, you can either go sign a petition, donate to a charity, or even help someone you know. Theres so many more mental health issues that can fuck with people, Such as ADHD, Autism, and many more. #HelpTheDepressed
