Mental health is such a serious problem and I'm glad you chose that as one of your opportunities to explore. It really is an epidemic stemmed from a lack of awareness and research to help these people who need our help and support. I hope more people look to create more solutions for mental health to avoid events like this from being common in today's world.
ReplyDeleteI like that you chose to tackle a wide range of problems that varied in severity. The only thing I disliked in this blog post was that the font was extremely tiny and hard to read. Additionally, I like how you kept the summaries short and focused just as much attention on the problem at hand as summarizing the article.
