THE REALITY

Depression and Anxiety are significant mental health concerns in Australia and has been on the rise in recent years.  Approximately 4.8 million Australians live with these disorders, making it the most common mental health conditions in the country.
  

Women are more likely to experience anxiety than men, with the prevalence amongst women being almost twice that of men.  Young people are also at an increased risk of experiencing depression and/or anxiety, with approximately 1 in 6 young Australians experiencing anxiety in any given year.
