1 in 5 adults in the United States has a mental health condition. 5 in 5 of us have mental health.
In a year that’s been exceptionally difficult for so many people, studies have shown that the number of everyday people having mental health symptoms is on the rise. Depression rates more than tripled in the Spring of 2020, according to a national study.
