Abstract
Mental health statistics play an essential role in understanding the prevalence, distribution, and trends of mental health conditions across different populations. By collecting and analyzing data, researchers can identify risk factors, predict future trends, and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions. This research summarizes the data collected from a twenty-three question survey and explores whether having a strong support system impacts a person's mental health; the degree to which losing a parent impacts a person's mental health; whether exercise significantly impacts how a person perceives their body image; whether having experienced an abusive relationship increases the likelihood of being arrested and does marriage relate to the rate at which people admit to crying.
