The Time of Beyond Medications

According to World Health Organization, being healthy is not just the absence of any illness or disease, it is a state of full physical, social as well as mental wellbeing. In today’s scenario, mental health is not given equal importance as physical health. People would move mountains to treat an injured person but when the wound is inside the mind, nobody is even bothered to care. Many internal problems get dismissed by the fact that he or she just “being sad”. We need to break this taboo.

All the researches I have read, it was found out that it is the young generation around the globe who suffers from common health disorders. There is an apt need of awareness about mental health and its treatment options in the youth. Mostly things happen to people do not lead to disorders, but any traumatic event that may occurred creates problems for children who are young. Childhood Depression is a phenomenon that has come up which is different from the normal feelings of sadness. The changes in appetite, sleeping patterns, having low energy, lack of interest activities which were enjoyed earlier, feeling of guilt hovered around a person and makes a person’s a daily life difficulties to sustain.

Life is full of stressors at any given point. You may be surprised to know that some stress is also very good for us! Psychologists have termed it as “Eustress”. The chemical responses in the body helps us to be motivated and let us work towards our goal.

I want all of you take a pledge to make your mental health an utmost priority and take help whenever there is bump in the road. There is no shame or a sign of weakness in this rather you will come out strong enough to tackle all the difficulties in your life!
