Battling Mental Illnesses: You Are Not Alone

Stress can result in many problems. Mental illness is one of them. People do not usually talk about mental illness because they often think that it is "all in the head" and the people who always use that line are ignorant when it comes to mental health. So talking about mental health is an important topic to discuss so that people can raise awareness about it.

Usually, students are the most victims of mental illnesses. Examples are depression and anxiety. These are caused by stress from a school like failing grades, taking exams, reciting in front, or even socializing with other people.

Mental illness is not a joke, and it can lead to suicide when a person is not dealing it well. When dealing with mental illnesses, you should always remember that you are not alone. Many people are willing to help you. You have your family and friends, and also, some professionals are always there to help you. Please do not be afraid to come and ask for their help.

We should amend with mental illnesses just like how we deal with colds and fever- with no judgment so that people could quickly seek for help without other people judging them according to an article on Memorial University. It is a serious problem that's why we should treat it fervently.

There are many counseling centers. If you are or if you know someone who is suffering from a mental illness, you can bring them to a counseling center near you, or you can admit them to your guidance counselor in your school.

According to Gazette Memorial University, there is an app called Bridge the Gapp and this app has a feature that measures your mood and can help sorting your mood, and if your feelings are becoming more critical and extreme, it can connect you to an agency that can help you. It can also help you relax when you are feeling anxious. It also teaches us about mental health if you want to learn more about it.

Mental health is an important thing to discuss. When people are talking about it more, the more we can raise awareness about it. Don't be embarrassed or be ashamed when seeking help. You should always remember that you don't have to go through it alone.
