Absence of mental illness is NOT the presence of #mentalhealth
https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> . The idea is to have a "flourishing" life where one has a life free of mental illness and presence of happiness and other positive factors.
#mentalhealth
https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> is an ongoing BUT preventable burden ONLY IF we realize that it it as IMPORTANT as physical health. It& #39;s in our (and only our) hands to try and destigmatize it.
There is no need to judge someone who decides to go to therapy/counselling or wants to visit a psychiatrist. Try to be there for them and ask them of they are doing fine. Stop all the judgment.
#suicide is neither brave nor weak. stop categorizing it. learn more about #mentalhealth
https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> and signs of suicide and its prevention strategies rather than labelling.
My most recent favorite thread on #mentalhealth
