Campaign: | To educate people about mental health issues |
I've been diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). It gives me the urge to wash my hands at least 30 times a day.
OCD is what I live with, but my team and I want to shed light on the different types of mental health conditions that can affect young people.
If others were able to recognise the symptoms and know how to help, it could combat the loneliness that some people experience.
With Fixers, we hope to encourage discussion on the subject of mental health, so that other young people feel able to open up to their peers and seek support.
Here is a list of Fixers helping me with this Fix:
Alice Fofana | Amado Roku Ali |
Cameron Ritchie | David Chen |
Hesper Stratford | Katie Baughan |
Lloyd Northover | Matt Dray |
Mollie Russell | Ross Kilminster |
Saskia Thorne | Sian Butt |
