We can better quote World Mental Health Day as “World Mental Health Awareness Day” since the primary motive of the day is to spread awareness about mental health. Mental health refers to the proper functioning at an emotional and behavioural level, without any sort of illness.
Caused Mental Health issues are depression, stress, isolation, anxiety, loss of loved ones etc. We can detect these issues with the help of Therapy, counselling, or medication. Discriminating behaviour and social stigma adds up to the mental health issues of an individual in society.
Everyone can make an attempt to open up about their friends or family member struggling with these issues. This way it can help people and the government check the mental health problem to take effective measures against it. Also, helping at an individual level makes up for your responsibility as a good citizen. This can be a great initiative during such an infectious COVID-19 Pandemic.
