Maybe if this poor girl didn't take on so much, her mental health might improve. You shouldn't be 17 with no time for yourself. Removing some of the pressure on these kids might be a lot more effective in the long run than teaching them how to identify their mental health issues.
This is amazing! When I was in school, it wasn’t talked about at all and people just had to mask in order to get by. I felt like I had to hide my anxiety from all of my friends which was exhausting and unsustainable. I wish we had a support group available because I probably and I wouldn’t have had such an isolating, life-changing burnout by just trying to “be normal”. This should be implemented within every school community. I’m not sure mental health is actually getting worse or if it’s just acceptable to talk about now. Because when I was in school, we could never admit we felt hopeless. We could never risk being seen as “crazy”.
An oppressive federal government causes most mental health problems
Bad mental health : Born in Amerikkka
They need to turn off nbc°
Mental health is very important 💚
Being loved doesn’t help mental health it actually make it worse because then they expect love every time and go crazy when someone doesnt show it back.. mental health can only be resolved by acknowledging your mental issues and not allowing them to affect others.. this is just a campaign for kindness not actually resolving mental health smh
By going to get castrated at 13 years old by your favorite democrat politician, or municipal school board administrator?
The blonde white teenage high-schooler, truly the most oppressed and weakest of our society. Truly the most deserving of our attention and welfare.
Our society is creating more mental health issues.
God forbid they get jobs and live in the real world. You have to be crazy to live amongst crazy.
Too much focus on mental health just creates more mental health problems. Mind is like a can of worms, you do not want to open it or you'll just make it worse. Just look at poor countries, do they have mental problems? It's just first world problem. Or decades in this country when people didn't even know or talk publicly about mental health.
You can't trade facts for feelings and expect to conform
Mental healthy!? They need Jesus. Stop sinning trust Jesus.
Hello ❤❤❤❤❤
