Faced with the vision that influencers, musicians, athletes and people in general have shown on social networks for some time on topics such as mental health and the consequences that “this is not talked about” brings, many have begun to question and understand emotional balance.
It is a taboo that this new generation has ignored and started to address this issue. Seek help, first from the nearest environment and then turn to specialists in this field.
Ce Multimedios contacted psychology graduate Ivana Antonella Pesinis (MPN 898) who expressed that “talking about mental health is no longer taboo in this generation.” In this sense, the lawyer stated that it is “a starting point to encourage reflection on the part of those who begin to question their emotional, emotional and behavioral state.”
On the other hand, the professional emphasizes that for older generations, it is still a little more expensive to admit and seek help, and talking about issues related to mental health is still an uncomfortable topic to discuss.
What is mental health?:
“Mental health is much more than just the absence of disorders. It is a state in which a person is able to deal with everyday problems, feels productive, and can contribute to others. He seeks emotional balance, adaptation to changes, healthy relationships, and a positive attitude toward oneself and others,” Bisinis explained.
As a suggestion, the psychologist warns that those people going through a stressful situation should “take a moment and connect with themselves, and understand their emotions, feelings, thoughts and behaviors, which helps them make informed decisions and improve their quality of life.” “And how to achieve this?” “Prioritizing physical and emotional well-being is essential. Exercise, get enough rest, and nourish your body and soul healthily. Maintaining positive connections with others (families, friends, community) can boost mental health and provide support during difficult times.

Finally, if a person cannot attend treatment, but wants to take care of their mental health, Ms. Ivana suggests the following:
1) Pay attention to basic habits: being able to rest and sleep for a reasonable period, eating properly at certain times, and paying attention to your hygiene and personal hygiene.
2) Recognize emotions, physical symptoms or discomfort.
3) Keep an emotional log, where you can, for example, write down the feelings of the week (stress, sadness, anger, anxiety, etc.) and, based on that, find out their determinants.
4) Keep a journal of the things you are grateful for (whatever makes a person feel good, whether it is a companion when waking up, silence to talk to someone, or laughter)
5) Strengthening ties with links that nourish, secure, and ensure well-being.
6) Have space to disconnect and connect with yourself, whether through meditation or physical activities.
Keep in mind that mental health is just as important as physical health. If your fever prevents you from doing things; Depression and anxiety too.
