A recent study into the state of Australia's Mental Health has revealed some alarming statistics about the states of mind of Aussie women. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to The Federal Government's Chief Deputy Medical Officer for Mental Health, Ruth Vine, about whether we're seeing an increase in mental health issues because we really are experiencing an increase, or is it because we're just talking about it more. 

If you feel like you're not coping, call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
