Why I’ve Started This Blog

My name is Meril Jacob and I’m a transition year student. As part of my Gaisce award,I have started this blog. I have chosen the topic of mental health. As it’s important part of our lives starting from our childhood and adolescence through into adulthood.

Not only due to that but I believe mental health is a very important issue to discuss especially in our modern society. Secondly, I want to raise awareness from this blog about many aspects and impacts of mental health. Finally, the prevalence of some mental health disorders has risen in the past few years and we should be able to have open discussions about it rather than hiding it and hurting ourselves further

This blog is based on online sources that I’ve personally researched. I have tried to use credible sources to make this as accurate as possible. I would like for this blog to be read by people of any age,who may find my blog informative and help them in some way.
