The Guardian/Observer Christmas appeal for 2014 is
linked with Mind/Rethink Mental Illness's Time to Change campaign. The campaign
seeks to dispel the myth that mental health problems are uncommon.
Some statistics to consider are:
- 16.2% of adults suffer from a common mental
disorder
- Females (19.7%) are more at risk than males
(12.5)
- People in the age range 45-54 are the most at
risk (19.9%), followed by those aged 16-34 (18.2%)
- The lowest at risk are those aged 65-74 (10.6%)
