This blog is very informative and helpful. Mental health deserves attention and this blog definitely helps.
Mental wellbeing needs a lot of attention and openness and space to talk about it so people can understand it better and work oj it.
Menatl Health needs awareness and the more we talk and write about it, the better acceptance it gets. Lets treat this as any other illness. I would say “Share and Seek help as every story matters”.
I always feel good when someone write about mental health issues and how to cope up. This is way we are making it normal and creating awareness
yes mental health is most important part of our overall health. and each one should take good care of their mental health by managing their stress level and keeping themselves surrounded with positive people.
Awareness about a problem is very essential to find a solution to it. Very apt and detailed perspective of looking at it

Mental health problem is such serious issue these days as we are all busy with our work, busy in rat races and so that we can’t take our will out properly. Isolated lifestyles, busy schedules make everyone stressed and for that this issue has increased. Really great to read your thought on the same.

It is so important for mental health issues to come to the forefront and be addressed. The more we talk about them, the easier it becomes for those dealing with them. At least it helps remove the social stigma attached to mental health issues. So good of you to talk about it here.

Mental health can affect daily living, relationships, and physical health. Taking care of one’s mental health can help one’s ability to enjoy life. To do so, we must strike a balance between our daily activities, responsibilities, and efforts to improve our psychological resilience. Very well explained.
A very important post. I am from a generation that did not give importance to mental health. It is good to see things changing now. We need to make it comfortable for people to open up about their issues.
Mental Health is an important topic and it is yet to be not seen as a taboo in India. I believe one should take breaks just like sick leaves to make one MENTALLLY HEALTHY!
This one’s a very well-rounded and a very concise introductory post for someone who needs to understand what mental health is and why it is important. Kudos!
Mental health is a condition that tends to be pushed under the carpet, because of how society perceives it. Creating awareness about this is really important and your post is really helpful in this direction.
This topic needs to be discussed more openly in every family without any tabboo. Mental health is as important as physical health and your physical health is somewhere related to your mental health also. I will follow all your posts on the same as I myself had faced a mental breakdown very recently and I was lucky to have a friend who supported me throughout.

I can so relate to each and every word you have written, thanks to PPD, Been there and it was damn difficult without any help and not knwoing what it was and how to deal with it. This is such a helpful article I would certainly like to share this with my near and dearones.
A very important post, particulalrly about maintaining positive mental health after recovering. Although we have more awareness around mental health, it is still a taboo to talk about it in most families.
If more and more people come out and tak about it, more awareness can be raised. Since I am associated with a mental health org., I realize how many people still shy away from it. A much needed post.
While these tips are extremely relevant and pratical, I feel mental health is a spectrum and not black and white. For me at least, I feel on the top of the world on some days, while I don’t feel like getting up on other.
