New -delhi, October 10 (IANS). Every year on October 10, World Mental Health Day is celebrated all over the world. The theme this time is ‘access to mental health services in case of disaster or distress’. At World Mental Health Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated those who work in this area. Prime Minister Modi wrote on social media platform X that World Mental Health Day is a powerful reminder that mental health is a fundamental part of our overall well-being. In this quick world, this day emphasizes the importance of showing and expanding compassion for others. PM Modi said we can work together to create an environment where the conversation about mental health becomes mainstream. My congratulations to everyone who works in this area and help others to be healthy and find happiness. World Mental Health Day, who is celebrated every year on October 10, aims to raise awareness about mental health among people and make them understand that mental problems are just as serious as physical illnesses. The worrying thing is that today’s youth is increasingly suffering from mental problems such as depression, anxiety and tension. Quick lifestyle, pressure on social media, career uncertainty and instability in relationships, all this influence on the mental health of youth. Today’s youth constantly compares themselves to others. In the race to show his perfect life on Instagram, he begins to feel empty from the inside. Work stress, study pressure, family expectations and fear of failure surround his thinking. This is why cases of depression increase the most between the ages of 16 to 30 years. In addition, the lack of sleep, poor eating habits, a lack of physical activity and digital addiction also aggravates this problem. Day and night ties are plunged into mobile and laptops, not only the eyes, but also the spirit. At the same time, there is still stigma in society regarding mental health. People keep away from a psychologist or psychiatrist, which exacerbates the situation. In such a situation, one thing that should be noticed is that even if someone seems physically healthy, it is not necessary that he is also spiritually healthy. -—IANS MS/Share this Story Tags
