The Prevalence of Anxiety & Depression
Anxiety and depression are widespread mental health challenges. In fact, statistics show that 1 in 5 people will face a mental health issue in any given year. By the time individuals reach the age of forty, it’s estimated that half of the population in Canada will have experienced mental health concerns at some point in their lives.
While awareness of mental health is on the rise, there is still a stigma that surrounds these issues, making it difficult for many to seek the help they need. Almost half of those who have experienced anxiety or depression never visit a healthcare provider to discuss it. This hesitation often arises from the mistaken belief that mental health struggles should be handled privately or that there’s shame in seeking support.

Just like any physical injury, mental health challenges require attention and care. You wouldn’t ignore a broken leg or a punctured lung – your mental health deserves the same level of consideration.
