Open Talk, Mental Health Questionnaires
Welcome to Open Talk, we provide Mental Health Questionnaires for Pre-Teens, Teens and Adults. Our Questionnaires are developed by qualified and experienced professionals in psychology.
According to a new report, South Africa ranks as one of the worst countries regarding mental health. The report is the second Annual Mental State of the World Report from Sapien Labs. Suicide is an important public health concern globally, with one person dying by suicide every 40 seconds, and many more making attempts to kill themselves. In South Africa, 23 people kill themselves every day, and another 460 people make attempts to end their own lives, suicide is the second leading cause of death amongst adolescents and young people between the ages of 15 years and 29 years, accounting for one in 10 unnatural deaths in this age group.
