This day provides a
great opportunity to the people who works in the field of oh mental health ,
psychology etc to discuss about their work , talk about their work. They try to
explain the communities how we can fight with the mental problems and what can be
the appropriate solutions.
This year we all are
facing a big pandemic , the corona outbreak. In this time period many have lost
their all , whether financially or emotionally. In this time period , mental
health of people is been heavily affected and many have committed suicide
because of extreme poverty and many other reasons.
The Theme of World Mental Health day 2020
In this year ,
According to World Federation for Mental Health
(WFMH) the theme for World Mental Health Day 2020 is 'Mental Health for All:
Greater Investment – Greater Access'.
Which means
, during this tough time of pandemic ,our first priority should be mental
health and we seriously need to need invest in it and every possible manner.
WHO director- Ghebreyesus stated the
every one in this world is tending to accep the concept and idea of universal
health coverage (UHC) and the mental health is mandatory to be an important
part of UHC. “Nobody can be denied for the access to mental health care
services and health because for the
reasons of poverty or living in a remote area.,” he added.
The
World Mental Health day theme ,gives a stress on the fact that mental health is
a basic human right like other all human rights given by law and should be
available to anyone at any point of time.
Importance of World Mental Health Day
A
healthy emotional life and mind is mainly a matter of how a person's mind
processes, under various scenarios and the understand information, experiences
and knowledge regarding mental health. I think being emotionally and mentally fit is the key to success in all
aspects of life.
Along with physical health Mental health significantly
influences our quality of life. So it makes inference that mental health is
just like physical health and even more important which needs to be taken care
of and maintained. And one way that it can be taken care of is through finding
a feeling of a community .
Many people (almost 1 out of every four persons) have
mental health issues and from time to time when they are ignored or not taken
seriously they can become a mental illness But when ongoing signs and symptoms
cause much stress and tension they could affect your ability to
function properly.
A mental illness or mental disease can make your life miserable and can cause many hurdles in your daily life, such as at university or at office or in relationships. In many of
the cases, symptoms can be dealt and managed with a proper combination of
medications provided and talking therapy
(psychotherapy).
Symptoms of mental disorders
Signs and symptoms of mental illness if identified can prevent a serious
loss to brain by getting treatment at perfect time. The signs and symptoms also
vary, depending on the disorder and which circumstances the patient is
suffering and many more factors are involved.Mental illness symptoms can seriously
affect emotions, thoughts , behaviors and ultimately leading to a miserable
life.
Some of the signs and symptoms are as follows:
· The regular
sensation sadness or down mood
· Not able of
thinking or ability to concentrate is gradually decreased
· Superfluous fears
or worries, or extreme feelings of guilt of the things which are just
psychological.
· Extreme mood
changes of highs and lows at any point of time , sometimes without any reasons.
· Sudden
disconnection from friends and loved ones.
· A regular feeling
of tiredness, low self esteem or problems sleeping
· Detachment from
reality (delusions) or just making their own world hallucinations
· Not able to cope
with daily problems and getting stressed easily.
· Facing problems in
understanding and relating to circumstances and to people
· A sudden increase
in usage of alcohol or drug use to elevate mood.
· A Major changes in
eating habits ( bad eating habits)
· Sex drive changes
· Tending towards
extreme anger, or violence
· Recent suicidal
thoughts
Many times mental disorders also lead to the symptoms associated with physical health disorders , some of which includes the pain in stomach , migraine etc.
When you should consult a
doctor
The regular experiences of signs and symptoms of mental
illness mentioned above is a major reason and a correct time you should seek a
good psychologist or a care provider. Most mental issues don't get resolved on
their own, and if they are ignored or remain untreated , there is most likely
the person will be a victim of a serious mental illness and it may get worse
over time and cause serious problems and as mentioned above it will make your
life miserable.
There is also a great reason and a correct time to
consult a doctor is when you start experiencing the regular suicidal thoughts.
Many a time surrounding people of the patient
experiencing suicidal thoughts tend to make the person feel that they are a
loser or they are just a failure and stating that mental health is nothing.
This leads to a serious loss even a suicide.
MY_OPINION
This is a sad reality that in our world most of the
people underestimate the mental health in comparison to physical health.
According to me, until your mental health is absolutely fine your physical
health will also not be good. Instead we should equally prioritize the both
physical and mental health for the proper functioning of our body and deal with
various circumstances.
Human is as social animal, and we have to encounter thousands
of hurdles in our lives and to cope with them we need a strong and healthy
mind.
The
Theme of World Mental Health day 2020 is to invest in mental health which is
appropriate for this period of pandemic as well as in normal life.
