What role do media and celebrities play in promoting mental health awareness?

Mental Health

The media along with celebrities influences our life in a big way. They can change the way in which we think. When a celebrity speaks up about his or her own experience with mental health that ordinary people like me feel empowered. We believe if they can talk about their problems, so can I. This is a kind of inspiration for us that we can feel. It inspires the society to speaking out about mental health.

Mental health is something that can be talked. Television, radio, social media can all help create awareness for it. For instance, if a drama, movie or interview shows begin talking about depression, people find themselves thinking about this matter. If celebrities talk about mental health on social media, it quickly reaches a lot of people. I think sharing their truth gives people the courage to do so and to remove the wrong beliefs about mental health.

Below I share some videos of my some favorite celebrities talking about mental health.



How can education improve understanding of mental health?

Mental Health and Education

I always think that education can solve any problem. Mental health becomes a very important factor if we give importance to it in our education system. Education can teach us how to process stress or how to treat others when they are little, that way we will grow up into kind and caring people.

The truth is many people still have wrong beliefs about mental health. However the best way to correct such misunderstandings is through education. For instance, it will help to have schools and colleges arrange workshops about mental health and tell students when is the right time to consult with a professional. To teach us how to take care of ourselves and others. So I think education can change our whole generation where people are afraid to talk about mental health.

When I was in high school there was a madam who brought up mental health every week. Those talks were a real learning experience for me.

What are the benefits of creating supportive environments for mental health discussions?

Mental Health Awareness

I think, It is very important to have space to talk about mental health in open way. When I’m stressed or I’m having a problem I see somebody whose trying to understand me or be there for me, it makes me feel so much better. This will be a blessing to the entire family if everyone at home cares about each other’s mental health.

It's the same for workplaces. Employees work better if the work place is supportive. We suffer often because they we are afraid to share our mental health problems in case others will judge us. When we can talk openly without fear, the fear goes away. We know it’s better than hiding our problems.

I think supportiveenvironment and careful mindset not just good for the individual, but it’s good for our whole society. If we built a society where we care about our mental health, we can all live in a happier, healthier life.
