I agree with her I can’t wait for all the airline pilots high speed train drivers and Jeremy Corbyn to come out and open up about their mental issues Remember statistics say 80% of the population have mental issues Yes 80% and the other 20% are in denial

Well said Sophie. 1 in 4 people have mental health problems in their lives. I don't think we've seen 1 in 4 celebrities speaking about it yet? When we reach that point maybe we need to worry. Till then there's more awareness to raise.

Boring

News?

Anyone who helps to get the word out no matter who they are is a good thing. itsgoodtotalk mentalhealthawareness bipolar PTSD

Actually there is a comparison between the ‘have’s & have nots’ -choice! They have options - poor people don’t have choices - they would do better to acknowledge how easy they’ve got it & not be so patronising!

He is a feckin dinosaur.....very small brain but a massive mouth

It’s not a helpful comparison to have mental illness discussed by rich, high profile celebrities no matter how well meaning, they are trying to diminish poverty as a root cause of stress to appease their consciences is how it looks, there’s no comparison!

Hollywood celebs should use their platform to discuss the “stigma’ of mental health issues only. Not politics! After all they’re intimately aware of mental health issues but know nothing about the real world.

Little actual news, neo-liberal views protruding, very disrespectful

Beverly Callard appears to have got away with this one. Is that because her name wouldn’t get as much attention as piersmorgan ?

Hes right again

Piers is honestly the scum of the earth.

I think Piers often throws out something he knows will create controversy - just to get a conversation going - and it works - it can be interesting too, to address issues - because clearly there was different opinions.

And by doing so gave him exactly what he wanted. Publicity. Why do people bite?

He’d have to be hit by a truck, before his vitriol stopped. The more attention he gets, the worse he gets.

piersmorgan is right though, people are glamourising mental health. People should seek help and fight it!

Every time u hear Piers speak

Morgan is an awful person. Full stop.

News......

Piers Morgan can't help but ridicule people that struggle in life and have a mental illness. Five minutes later he's supporting an actual victim. Next day he is back to ridiculing the suffering. The man is a cowardly hypocrite.
