He believes that in many ways, we tend to think of mental illness in the extreme BUT mental health is just like physical health and we need to take care of it.
“Good mental health means being generally able to think, feel and react in the ways that you need and want to live your life. ”
- Training / Experience
In the mainstream, mental health is portrayed in such a way that anyone suffering from mental health issues is deemed dangerous or is made fun of. It is prudent that we demystify this and embrace preventive and corrective measures as it is erroneous to club all mental illnesses together and stigmatize those who are under treatment or wish to seek help.
