Mental Health in General.
Mental health involves your wellbeing and yout ability to function well without stress. There is no health without Mental health. If anything affects your mental health, it us safe to say you are not healthy.
A lot of people don't talk about Mental health or acknowledge it because when they think about Mental health, they talk about the extreme issues like someone going mad. It's not always the case.
Mental health problem is quite common and we need to get comfortable to talk about it. There are so many underlying factor to it and it can start from as little as anxiety to depression and bipolar disorder and the likes. It's only when you talk about it that you can get a diagnosis to know what needs to be fixed.
If you don't address some mental health problem, it takes its toll on you. Yes, there are some mental health issues that you will still be able to do the basic things like go to work and do what's expected of you but see it as driving a car with flat tyres.
Most people don't want to acknowledge the fact that they are not in the best of health and try to mask it with faith. It's okay to have faith but you still need to be able to admit things and then ask God for help. It's mostly psychological and social factors are the key things that affects our mental health and if they are not tackled the way they should, it affects us greatly.
Self esteem, attitude and beliefs, interpersonal relationships and the likes form the psychological aspect of things while trying to settle into a new country can take its toll too; gathering money, coming with kids into a new country, financial implications too, breaking away from known circle for the unknown...etc can make up that social aspect because reality sets in and you see things in a different light as there is no flexibility in the new country as you used to have back where you are coming from. You get more busy, no time for socials and the likes...it takes its toll on you whether you like to admit it or not.
Financial stress takes its toll on you too vecauae you work so hard and you notice there is nothing left at the end of the day. It can affect someone's mental health. Especially for migrants too that gets taxed on everything too. Accommodation can also be another big deal that can stress anyone...here in the UK and even in Lagos where you see agents charge you more than you are supposed to pay for a house rent. Relationship issues too can affect your mental health because of distance, change in role adjustments, etc. A lot of these things can affect your self esteem where you start to think something is wrong with you.
Look after your physical health. It's important to take good care of your physical health. Eat well, be active, exercise and the likes.
God is also a very important factor when it comes to dealing with your mental health. You cannot take God out of the equation.
You also need to meet with people. Socialize with people and connect with them. Speaking with people and socialising can help your mental health a lot.
Learn to relax, whine down and take things easy. Sometimes we work so hard that we forget to relax. Ask for help and allow yourself to be helped.
I have often suffered from insomnia and I have found a solution in Delta 8 Gummies. It is especially appealing to first-time THC users or those who prefer a more relaxed experience without the intensity of traditional THC products. I can also say that research, although still in its early stages, shows that it can help with nausea, appetite stimulation and even pain relief.
