The Background

There are a lot of adults who suffered from mental health, not only in United States but also all over the world. Meanwhile in United States there are about 42.5 millions people suffers some mental issues each year, which is about 18.2 percent of the total adult population. Regarding the number, this is actually a serious problem. There are so many questions to be answered to solve this problem, but what about a very simple step that an individu can do to help.


This number of people who are suffering from mental health is increasing each year. We were being challenged how to help the community as individual to increase awareness towards this issue. Of course to reduce the number of people who suffer from mental illness is such a big step, but in order to help, it doesn’t have to be something big. So, if we see from different perspective, rather than to make a big impact, we started from questioning how might we at least help people to feel good, to not think too much about their problem.
