Mental Health

'Its okay to be not okay' 

“You’re only given a little spark of madness, you mustn’t lose it”. 

In today’s era this sentence has lost its meaning; people nowadays have forgotten to respect others' decisions and choices in life. 

The fear of getting judged has reached those restraints that none of us are confident enough to speak up.

One thing I tend to observe everywhere in my mates, teachers, family and even strangers, is the level of anxiety they contain. 

Anxiety is equal to stress and when it hits the boundaries, depression and severe mental illness starts taking place.

1 out of 4 people experiences mental health issues around the globe that means someone you know may be struggling with mental illness.

It’s okay to be not okay, if we all can understand these 6 simple words life can be not just a little but a lot easier for everyone with or without mental health issues. If we all could just understand that being weird or standing out from others is okay, there is no need to criticize, laugh or spread rumors but just accept the fact that he/she is different from you!

If someone you know is struggling from personality disorders which you can’t understand don’t speak harsh words like, “Stop your acts,” and “You’ve gone crazy.” These sentences can kill someone from inside. Be considerate and tell them that it’s okay. Help them by talking or seek some basic counselling from doctors.

One of the major problems that we face in society is that when someone with mental health issues tries to recover and goes to a psychiatrist for consultation he has to go through so many difficulties from his family and friends. People start hurting by calling them psycho.

 Let me tell you that everyone is a psycho–it’s just a matter of how you present it.

“The only journey is the journey within.” Don’t lose your craziness despite any pressure; in fact you need yourself more than anyone else does!
