Known in the 10th of October, mental health day is an international educational campaign which aims to increase knowledge on mental health to unaware people. The very first time in 1992, it was observed by the World Federation for Mental Health as an annual activity.
Each celebration of the global event holds a theme that aims to focus the concerns of the World Federation for Mental Health on specific problems.
With this year’s theme, the organizers chose to make mental health issues a global priority, all things considered mental health is definitely an international concern. It is famous for a well known fact that not only Americans, Canadians or other highly industrialized citizens experience the problems caused by mental health. Mental disorders do not choose their victims. They exist in all cultures, in most ages and on both sexes.

Mental disorders do not choose their victims. They exist in all cultures, in most ages and on both sexes.
The sad thing though is that there is certainly too little attention being given in helping people with mental health. We, Americans, are lucky because our government, our health authorities and many other organizations are tying up to mobilize the complexities for assisting people with mental health. However, even our current attempts are not enough. In many countries though, in fact in almost all countries in the world, mental health is being given too little concern. This is aggravated by lack of funds, by lack of facilities and by lack of nearly all the resources required to advance the causes associated with mental health.
For this year, the World Federation for Mental Health made it a point to seek everyone’s concern in battling mental health. This is done via strengthening services and the participation of the citizens.
Also, WMHDAY 2008 will highlight the present requirements of people with mental well being and also the developments of present methodologies, treatment choices and management of mental well being. Advocacy may be the key and this year’s aim would be to integrate the sense of advocacy to all folks to ensure that change might be feasible. WMHDAY 2008 also advocates that solving mental well being problems could also be facilitated by feeding the best details to all kinds of people by delivering reliable resources.
Its time for the globe to listen. By way of this year’s team, we could eliminate the stigma and discrimination folks with mental disorders really feel. Via appropriate public details, people who do not suffer with such disorders would recognize their suffering counterparts and could help them strengthen their lives. And by way of the supply of right details for the unaware public, they could share their lives to those men and women with mental health disorders.
Sufficient for the clucking of tongues soon after a miserable event happened brought on by, say, a mentally ill individual. Sufficient using the every day pains people with mental disorders experience since the public does not have sufficient understanding on the nature of their disorders. Enough using the unjust treatment to these distressed individuals. They need to have aid, not discrimination. Support not stigma.
We always hear it within the news. A father killed his loved ones and killed himself after. A teenage killed his peers and turned the gun against him and killed himself afterwards. A mother killed her children and got sent to a mental institution. Why do we usually need to wait for some thing to take place just before we take action?
Why do not we listen to the painful sufferings of the mentally ill people now and supply them the appropriate services they need to have and deserve? World Mental Health Day 2008 sponsors subtly the belief that the world would be a better place if only we can understand and help people with psychological disorders
