As an introvert, my ultimate dream was to be able to socialize, stay in touch with family and friends, and make a decent living straight from the comforts of my home. Well, it’s true what they say, Be careful what you wish for. My life now has zero interaction and my ultimate dream has become my worst nightmare. I feel like I have no control over my life, I feel like time is slipping from my hands, and it’s been 5 months since I’ve last seen my best friend. And I know that I am not alone. I know many of you have suffered and many of you are still suffering from depression about the altered routines and anxiety and uncertainty about the future, I know many of you people, who were already depressed or had the fear of change, are suffering the most. But trust me, this pandemic is almost over. Believe me when I tell you that life will get back to normal
Why mental health awareness is important (especially in a pandemic like the COVID 19)
If you are having feelings like hopelessness about the future, worry for your own health and the health of your loved ones, difficulty in having a routine and an increased amount of stress, anxiety, and depression, Know that You are not alone.
What is important right now is that you keep your mental health in check, you don’t only need to come physically healthy out of this pandemic, you need your mental health too.
Many researches have revealed that today’s generation is more depressed than ever, and in these trying times, Isolation and Loneliness can have a drastic negative impact on our mental health. It is important that we give importance to the emotional and mental well being of ourselves and of those around us. We should try to reach out to others. If some friend of yours is depressed to make a habit of talking to them daily, ask about casual things, show that you care, and If you are going through some mental health problems yourself, do not hide them, reach out, there’s no shame in asking for help, it’s time to heal.
“What mental health needs is more sunlight, more candor, and more unashamed conversation.” – Glenn Clos
