R U OK? day is on Thursday 10th of September. It is a national day of action to remind everybody that any day is a good day to ask someone you know "Are you OK?"

This playlist is a series of 12 speakers from the TED website sharing their own stories about struggling with mental health issues such as depression, schizophrenia, PTSD and suicidal feelings.
