Hello, I was just wondering, we recognize all these other issues and get badges for them but not mental health. Mental Health awarness month is May and Mental Health problems show no bias to anyone and suicide is the 10th leading cause of death. My favorite is Wattson because I became aware the she has mental Health issues. Mental Health is just as stigmatized as anything else but I just wanted to bring it up because I am a person who suffers from Mental Health conditions and Apex has been a big part of my life. I just thought maybe it would help give people hope.

@shtupurgnamakit I can't remember the exact details, but I had a discussion with one of the CM's about Mental Health awareness about a year ago. I know they are supportive of Mental Health but can't remember the exact details and don't want to accidentally say something that's inaccurate. I personally make frequent donations to a US Mental Health nonprofit that provides mental health services to those who have difficulty accessing mental health care.

@shtupurgnamakit Yeah, I need a therapy after Solo-queue ranked for sure.

Anyways, Wraith also has lots of mental health issues. Being experimented on like a lab rat by your own partner is so cruel, and then only to lose all your memories and not know how you are. Thrust into the world with powers you don't understand, unknown place and unknown people. And now competing in a bloodsport to find all the answers. 'TTV Wraith' is a meme I know, it's sad that people treat her lore the same way.

@Sati_Sati Whether we realize it or not, we all know someone who require mental health care to some degree or another. I have an anxiety disorder, fortunately I have had access to great care and treatment, which has been life changing. Thus I make donations to foundations that provide access to treatment and care to those who don't have access to it, I hope my small donations can help others find treatment. Treatment and care can be absolutely life changing for those who need it. It can allow them to build healthy relationships with people again, experience joy again, find work and so many other things.

I have numerous friends and family who have dealt with varying degrees of mental illness.
