Physical Health is determined by Mental Health

        Physical Health is determined by Mental Health


   In a physical world where we are constantly connected, there is a hidden battlefield that many of us have to face in silence. So, let us know about it more.

   Mental health is an essential topic in our everyday life. It is for our overall well-being, influencing how we think, feel, and interact with others. Yet, it is neglected by our society. Mental health and its impact on society and individuals are discussed in the written essay.

   Mental health encompasses our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act, ultimately maintaining our lives. Unfortunately, mental health issues are pervasive, affecting people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. Common disorders like anxiety and depression can significantly impact an individual's daily functioning, leading to emotional distress, impaired relationships, and reduced productivity.

   Beyond the individual, mental health has far-reaching societal implications. Neglecting mental health strains healthcare systems, with increased healthcare costs associated with treating mental illnesses. Moreover, untreated mental health issues can lead to decreased productivity in the workplace, affecting both the individual and the organization. The ripple effect of mental health problems extends to families and communities, impacting social cohesion and overall well-being. According to the National Mental Health Survey of Bangladesh 2018-19,21.5 percent of the population is suffering from mental disorders.

   The stigma surrounding mental health is a significant obstacle to seeking help and support. Misunderstandings and stereotypes perpetuate the notion that mental health issues are signs of weakness or personal failures. This stigma contributes to the silence surrounding mental health, preventing individuals from seeking timely intervention and support. By overcoming stigma and promoting awareness, we can create a more compassionate and inclusive society that fosters open conversations about mental health.


   Prioritizing mental well-being requires a multi-faceted approach. It starts with education, ensuring that individuals have accurate information about mental health and understand that seeking help is a good sign of strength, not weakness. Promoting access to mental health services, such as therapy and counseling is crucial in providing support to those in need. Additionally, integrating mental health into workplace wellness programs and educational programs can help create environments that foster mental well-being from an early age.

   Moreover, self-care practices play a pivotal role in maintaining mental health. Activities like exercise, mindfulness, traveling, playing outdoor games, and maintaining social connections can contribute to a positive mental state. Cultivating resilience and coping mechanisms equips individuals to navigate life's challenges more effectively, promoting overall well-being.

   Mental health is an integral part of our lives, influencing our well-being and quality of life. By acknowledging the significance of mental health, overcoming stigma, and prioritizing mental well-being through education, support, and self-care, we can create a society that values and supports the mental health of all its members. We must work together to foster an environment that encourages open conversations, empathy, and understanding, ensuring that no one is left behind. Therefore, we can lead a sound and peaceful life by taking such steps.

Living in the Heavenly Realms(World Tour)

  Living in the Heavenly Realms:    You have definitely dreamt about being in heaven at some point of your life, haven’t you? Of course, you were dreaming, no one said that you were dead. But none of us actually knows if heaven exists. It might be here within us or it might be far-far away from us. No one has actually seen it or has been there. Who could possibly describe its beauty to us? No one. So, I’d like to believe that for now this is my heaven and by ‘this’ I mean the beautiful land of living ,also known as Earth. You might laugh thinking how such a messy, chaotic, polluted and problematic place can even be compared to the calm, beautiful, and wonderful heaven. I agree, but have you ever seen the beauty that lies in the nature, hiding from us? Have you dreamt about discovering those beauties before permanently going to the heaven? Well, I have constantly dreamt of being able to bless my eyes with those beautiful scenarios. If you’d like to travel some places lik...

A Journey I Never Thought Was Possible

            Hello everyone. I'm Anindya and I am going to share about one of my experiences. That experience is about my competitive gaming. It is a story of 2022-23 when I got the chance to go and compete with Nepal along with my team. It was from a game named "Mobile Legends" which is a MOBA game.               Since I was little, I played different kind of games, like racing games, shooter games etc. As I was kind of a nerd from childhood, I memoriz ed lineups even in shooter games even though my aim was bad as it seemed fun. Then I came across with the MOBA game League of Legends in 2015. It is a type of game where to play good , a good memory and patience is required. From then I got hooked on this game. Then in 2016, I got in touch with the    game Mobile Legends which is the same type of a game with a different platform, in other words it is played in mobile. From then I s...

Why I keep a sinister dark void of a beast as my pet

Image
  This is Spook , my pet cat. Spook, unlike his name suggests, is not spooky; he is a scaredy cat himself. He often gets mistaken for everything other than a cat: a dog, a fox, a plush, a bear even. Even I regularly mistake him for a pile of dark clothes.     Being the sinister void he is, he is often found to be looming, watching us over from great heights.  This mythical dark beast enjoys feasting on the flesh of creatures from the deep blue seas (aka fish). Spook, the mysterious shadowy feline, seems devoid of emotions; he does not particularly enjoy cuddles. However, there are times when he yowls and scratches behind my chair, indubitably seeking some pats on the head. Yet, as soon as he receives them, he behaves as if he never displayed his need for affection. There are times, however, when he does live up to his title. a jumpscare, much spooky Seeing a black lump of floof, tucked away in the corners, is not something you'd normally expect when you o...
