    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”.

    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.

    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.

      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.
