| One in four individuals are impacted by mental illness. What if we started treating physical illness in the same way as we treat anxiety and depression? Despite the evidence that being diagnosed with a mental illness is outside of a person's control, there is still a lack of empathy and knowledge surrounding illness. One individual commented that, "[Mental illness] is physical, everything is connected to the brain, remember that. If you break a leg, you know how to fix it. If you break a mind, it takes years to even find a place to start."
