Mental Health Awareness Month(1/2)

It's May! Mental Health Awareness Month! Mental Health Matters Every Single Day, Every Single Month!

How do we define if someone is Mentally fit or unfit? It isn't easy to figure out if a person is mentally stable as easy it is to Figure out someone being physically unfit. Yet, Mental Health is as Critical as physical well being.

Mental health hasn't been Considered/Accepted by each and everyone, People seem to address it as vague rather than deeming it as a mental state. Mental health is an inner battle which is as intense, as real, as complex anything can be.?Mental health is inextricably linked to every trip we take.

When A Person's Mental Health isn't stable, he/she appears to be unproductive, aggressive, not being active, there's a sense of disconnection or say there's a wrong set of behavior. Mental health needs to be looked after and should be taken up as a profound issue, as almost each and everyone goes through a phase where they need someone desperately.

How is Mental Effect affected? What are the reasons for the same? Below are some of it :-

? Prolonged Stress

? Long lasting Depression

? Self Doubts/Low Self Esteem

? Anxiety Disorders

? Traumatic Events

? Excessive fear of any outcomes

? Extreme Guilt of having done something

? Being left Alone

? Chronic Illness

? Suicidal thoughts

? Being hopeless-helpless

Mental health if not stable makes things hard even if they are subtle, Little things seem to be a trigger, Vivid memories starts flashing back, self doubts and self blame eat up a person, everything that surrounds us suffocate the inner us. Even the pocket sized issue turns out to be a mammoth issue.

Mental health brings in self doubts with us, But one thing which I would like to tell everyone & Which everyone needs to hear is :-

? The World is A Better Place with you In it.

? You Matter, Your Feelings Matter, You Deserve Happiness.

??Don't let thoughts make you vulnerable. You're a lot better than you think.

Mental health is a reflection of a person's life, their actions, the way they communicate, the way they feel and the way they perceive things.?Mental Health is word thrown away easily without adding any seriousness to it.

Your Mental Health Stigma can be broken in various ways, Following would be the best things you should approach:-

? Have a heart-to-heart Communication with the one who really matters, Be it a Friend, Family Member or a Relative

? Consult a therapist, It is okay if you need a psychiatrist, that isn't a bad sign

? Talk out about your problems openly in any social media platform, Normalize seeking help

? Let the Nature heal you, Move out & Explore places

? Practice Self Care, Perform Exercises/Yoga/Hit the Gym

? Watch out for things that make you Happy

? Give yourself a Break, It's one of the best thing to do

? Put on your Favorite Music, Eat the stuff you love

? Accept that Not Everything is Controllable, Be Realistic

? Don't let your thoughts Define who you are.

We as a Society, Need to come out of our ways and make People comfortable to let them talk openly. It can be a serious and a Vital situation for many.?Follow some of the pratices as such :-

Listen, Be there, Empathize.?Don't Judge, Don't Laugh!

Reassure, Spread positivity. Don't spread Apathy!

Let's Make Mental Health a Priority.
