Princess Kate Is All Smiles During World Mental Health Day

Yesterday William and Kate marked World Mental Health Day by visiting Harrow College in order to meet young people who talked about their mental health issues.

Paul Farmer, arch executive of a mental healthy gift behind a event, Mind, pronounced that a Duke and Duchess’ coming is “helping us to send an critical and obligatory summary to a universe that it is time to change a attitudes about mental health problems”.

On Saturday, the royal couple participated in World Mental Health Day at London’s Harrow College, meeting with volunteers from the organization Mind, who are working on an anti-stigma campaign Time to Change, reports Britain’s Daily Mail. They want to raise their children, 2-year-old Prince George and 4-month-old Princess Charlotte, away from the spotlight, like what most family do.

“The Queen gave a regal shrug of indifference, but added, ‘I do believe your wife should stop coloring her hair!”

But one of the key lessons for me was that the most effective services for people with mental health services were those that had been shaped by the people who used them.

Emma Peacock, 19, was eight when she was misdiagnosed with ADHD but at 16 it was discovered that she actually suffers from bipolar disorder.

The Duke took part in an anti-bullying workshop run by the Diana Award charity, while the Duchess visited the Anna Freud Centre. I mean, when was the last time your grandmother noticed that you’d had a haircut? It is not very good. I’ve hit the worst of the worst where life no longer felt a viable option. I’ve had peers calling me an attention seeker, messages on formspring telling me to kill myself, nurses referring to me as the sectioned girl. “To applaud how distant we’ve come and to remind everybody that it’s fine to speak but being fearful or ashamed”.

Natasha said: ‘World Mental Health Day emphasises an important truth – that we all have a responsibility to safeguard the mental health of the people around us.

Every year, Harrow’s Mind helps more than 7,000 local people with mental health problems, drawing on its 100 volunteers for assistance.
