One in three female students in the UK has a mental health problem, a survey suggests.

Mental health is fast becoming an issue in all walks of life and it is not surprising that students are affected. They are exposed to a lot of pressure and many find this very difficult. Early psychological intervention can prevent later, more serious conditions which might require medication or even hospitalisation.

Dr Danny Allen, Consultant Psychiatrist is commenting on an article http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-37037532 featured on the BBC News website.
