When do people experience mental health conditions for the first time?, The key chart from Hannah Ritchie's new @OurWorldInData article:
Why it spread
It spread because a big source and an independent author combined with strong reach in the top quarter, drawing 27,382 views, 125 likes, 30 reposts, 67 saves and 2 quotes, while the quote rate stayed below average.
What worked
- The post opens with a direct question about when people first experience mental health conditions, which makes the chart feel personally relevant.
- It credits a named independent author and a known data publication, so the chart carries borrowed trust from both.
- It presents the chart as the key chart from a new article, giving readers a clear reason to save and share it rather than just glance.
What to borrow
We could lead with a plain question our own data answers, then label the chart as the key one from a named piece and credit the author, so the framing travels with the graphic.
Careful
Do not read the saves and reposts as proof of design quality, since the measured reasons were source size and independent authorship, and the quote rate was below average.
