Schoolwork, climate change, and how you look are some of the main worries faced by young people in primary and secondary schools. That's according to a mental health charity called Place2Be. In a survey of more than 1,000 children in England, Scotland and Wales, they found that more than half (55%) of children said something would stop them from seeking help for their mental health. That's why this year's Children's Mental Health Week is all about speaking up about how you feel. Newsround visited one primary school in London to talk about these issues, where 10-year-old Isha told us that "sometimes it's hard to talk about mental health because you might be embarrassed of what the reaction of the other person will be." Joining us was presenter Katie Thistleton. She's also a trained counsellor, the host of Life Hacks on BBC Radio 1, and an ambassador for Place2Be. Katie says that while speaking to someone can really help, if it feels too difficult at first, there are things you can do. She said: "Writing a diary is really, really good - it's almost the same thing as telling somebody in a way. You've not got their response, but you can write down how you're feeling, and sometimes that just helps you to figure out what you're going through."
