Our mental health is so important.It affects what we feel,how we think,and our daily activities in life.Since we are just people,a normal being,we can't escape mental illness,as if it's chasing us.Our age,race,religion,state in life doesn't really matter to mental illness,he can hit people whenever he want.

Teenagers has the most case of having an mental illness/disorders.They experiencing stress because of different struggles in life such as overwhelming activities in school,family problems,looking for a job,social anxiety which can lead on having a mental illness—Depression.This is the fierce opponent of our life considering it is insidious.We can face everything our eyes see but not this,this is like something we can run off,but can't hide.

Depression can affect our physical health as well our emotions.It's normal for us to feel sad,down,and hopeless,that is part of our life.But having it for almost 2 weeks can lead to a serious depressive disorder.While facing depression,it develops our eating disorders,which will cause of unintended weight loss or change of appetite.Depression correspondingly influence our physical health,because of feeling down,maybe we think sometimes to hurt or harm ourselves.When we are coping with emotion pain and problems,we deal to them through self-injury.Occasionaly we hit,punch or head bang ourselves.People thought that self-injury will give them calmness and satisfaction,but no,that will only severe your emotions.I know some of my friends did this before,and i didn't do anything nor help them.But now,i'm completely moved to help them to get through with their depression.A good companion who won't hesitate to lend a help especially amid their darkest days.If you're one those people who intentionally hurt themselves,this is the sign,omit doing it,that won't bring any benefits to you.

Lastly,because of depression,our mind are filled with suicidal thoughts and that is so alarming.Someone tend to end their life.People who are depressed think that there is no more reason to live,and that's b they do feel hopeless,alone,and unworthy.If you have a friend,family member,or someone you know who wants to commit like that,help them to preclude taking their own life or suicide attempt.I know it's scary,but you also need to fight,for their own sake.A few nice words can help them more than we think.It maybe a simple words for us but we don't how big it's impact to them.Remember,we talk to them to motivate and encourage them,not to invalidate their feelings.Sometimes it is not our responsibility to comfort them,our presence would be very appreciative.Make sure that we are not minimizing their problems,thus,make them realize that no matter how big or small our struggles are,we can certainly win it by the help of our God.Prayer is the best weapon to use in every despairing situations in our lives.

Furthermore,if you ever feel down or depressed,don't hesitate to open up to someone.Bear in your mind that there's always someone who cares for you.Don't ever throw in the sponge,look forward and keep fighting!

Hoping that this would help you or enlighten you in some other ways.Thank you for reading!!:))

It's a topic that really needs to be taken good attention of. Depression is not a joke, and it can be more fatal than any physical disease. I hope people who suffers depression now will get through it as soon as possible. Thanks for raising awareness about it.

I have a draft right now that, coincidentally, tackles about mental health as well. Let us all continue speaking up about it so it will be given better measures.

Thanks for the article!

I also created an article about my depression and depression is the hardest enemy to fight for this pandemic. Nakatulong sa akin ang article mo sa ibang paraan; nakapagbigay ito ng mas malalim na kahulugan ng depresyon; Natutunan ko din dito ang ibang bagay na maaring kadugtong ng depresyon. Thank you for sharing your thoughts about depression. 🤍

I hope for more movements about sa depression dahil ito ang pinakacommon na sakit kahit anong panahon pa.
