Rejected petition better and more support for young people with mental health issues

Im 19yrs an have already lost 12 of my best friends and my boyfriend to suicide this is a number no one should have to say never mind at my age and yet the budget for mental health keeps getting hacked at im calling for more and improved support for young people in hour of all whom took their lifes

More details

1in4 young people have suicidal thoughts thats scary facts specially if you think young people on average know around 600 young people so it works out at around 150 of them statisically could have suicidal thought and yet the support out their is nearly all gone theres nothing for young people apart from gp's who are very good at misdiagnosing young people for being a "typical teenager" its time to wake up and face the fact this is 'typical' anymore this is serious how many more have to suffer
