Mental health wasn’t a commonly discussed topic until a few years ago. Back then, it was whispered about or completely ignored due to misleading assumptions and taboos against it. Many silently lived with mental ailments because there was no one to support them and little information was available. Fortunately, a lot has changed in the recent past. Since mental health is a personal journey, different people benefit from different treatments. Experts can provide excellent guidance, but sometimes the most insightful advice comes from those who have experienced comparable difficulties. Mental health significantly impacts physical health, often in unexpected ways. Stress and anxiety can lead to physical symptoms as small as headaches and even chronic conditions like hypertension. Taking care of mental health is essential not just for emotional well-being but for overall physical health too.
