Depression 101

Stats
Wait times for counselling and therapy can be long, especially for children and youth. In Ontario, it is common to have wait times of six months to one year (CMHO, 2016; Office of the Auditor General of Ontario, 2016). However, this depends on the person
and their situation. If you are waiting for services, there are
websites you can visit that provide ways to improve your mental health in the
meantime.
60 per cent of people with a mental health problem won't seek help for fear of being labelled (MHCC, 2018a).
