"It's basically representing standing up for the people who are suffering from mental illness or depression. I want them to know that people do care for them and it's all in the mind,they need to find someone to talk to.
"We are so lucky as football players to play football but at the same time,there's a lot of people also suffering from that."
Mabil said it was an issue close to his heart,having had his own personal struggles after leaving Adelaide United as a teenager to try his luck overseas.
"It's easy to be isolated,but there's people out there who care for you,"he said.
"I have such a family-orientated club in Denmark,who helped me a lot,and I've seen a lot of people suffering from it.
"I'm there to offer myself to people if they need any kind of attention,I'll be there to guide them through whatever they need."
Mabil said the Socceroos were buzzing after the win,which locks up second place in Group B and sets up a clash with the either Japan or Uzbekistan on Monday - not that he cares who they are drawn with.
"We are not focused on who we're going to play against,"Mabil said.
"I'd be worried for them,because we are just focusing on us and what we need to do. It was fun to be out there - a good atmosphere,great fans out there,great atmosphere. It was really good for us and a challenge that we really wanted,because you have to perform under pressure. We did that and we're carrying the momentum,especially from the last two games,into the knockout stage."
Socceroos coach Graham Arnold said the match was a"great learning experience"for players like Mabil,who are new to international football and major tournaments like the Asian Cup.
"A lot of the players that we have here (are) young players and uncapped players that haven't experienced playing in the Middle East,"Arnold said.
"The Syrian fans made a great spectacle of the game and we held our nerve,the younger boys held their nerve and it's a four-year journey we're on. We've started and the boys are buying into it.
"Even young Mabil and (Chris) Ikonomidis,they're two young kids that have just come in and they're scoring goals and doing a lot of hard work."
