World Mental Health Day 2022: World Mental Health Day is observed every year on 10 October across the world, with the aim of raising awareness of mental health issues around the world and efforts in support of mental health. This day provides an opportunity to all those working on mental health issues to talk about their work. Focuses more on what more needs to be done to make mental health care a reality for people around the world. Since our mental health has been affected a lot due to the Corona epidemic in two years, this year on ‘World Mental Health Day’, efforts are being made to reconnect people.
World Mental Health Day: Suicide rates are increasing in the world
According to the WHO, the theme of World Mental Health to be celebrated on 10 October 2022 is ‘Make Mental Health and Well-Being for All a Global Priority’. Any country can become a victim of mental health after the prolonged impact of Kovid-19. Apart from this, many health difficulties have come in front of the whole world. The whole world is not prepared to deal with these physical and mental health challenges.
The rate of people committing suicide is increasing in the world. People with mental health experience or their families and others should tell us that the welfare of their mental health does not always require governments to come forward. Common people can also play an important role in raising awareness about this.
A website will be launched on the occasion of ‘World Mental Health Day 2022’ and this website is going to act as a mental health advocate, which will be of great help to the people. This is expected to be of great help to people suffering from mental disorders around the world. The World Health Foundation was created as an independent Swiss foundation, whose mission is to protect the world by promoting health and serving vulnerable people.
What to do on World Mental Health Day?
The theme for 2022 is ‘Make mental health & well-being for all a global priority’. Many employers will be promoting mental health with activities and events that also acknowledge the theme.
Take some time for yourself and keep an eye on your well-being. Make sure you’re getting enough time to relax and rejuvenate to keep a healthy mind and avoid any unnecessary stresses in your day-to-day life. If you feel like things are getting on top of you or are finding it difficult to keep organized, consider using a daily planner or wellness journal to make sure you’re looking after yourself.
Try to check in with friends and family, they will surely appreciate the gesture. Use this day to let them know that you’re there for them, and to remind them how important their mental health is. If there is someone in your life who you are particularly concerned about, seek out relevant help to get them the professional support and therapy they require.
On and around this date, it is common to see people wearing a ribbon in solidarity, to raise awareness, and to show their support. Others choose to take their support online by posting on social media with the hashtag #worldmentalhealthday.
