Things that are important for mental health
Mental health is an essential and one of the most important aspects of our mental, behavioral and emotional health. What we think, how we feel, and how we use our thinking-consciousness to manage life - these are actually meaningful parts of our mental health. A mentally healthy person has a proper idea of himself and never succumbs to excessive emotions, such as anger, fear, violence, guilt or anxiety. They have the ability to deal with situations that arise in life.
Mental health problem is a growing social and health problem not only in Bangladesh but globally. Mental health is no less important than physical health. In the case of physical well-being, if one is in good health, he has full energy and he can devote himself to good deeds. In the same way, if someone is mentally healthy, he can do a lot of good work with full vigor. In other words, for complete well-being, a connection of well-being with both physical and mental health is essential.
It is never possible to achieve overall well-being by ignoring it. Physical disorders affect the physical health of the individual; Such is the case when a person is obsessed with various negative emotions, such as anxiety or fear; Then these emotions can make him mentally ill, such as depression, general anxiety disorder or general anxiety disorder, bipolar mood disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, etc.
The thing to regret and the reality is that the more we care about the health of the body and the more we care about the health, the more indifferent we are about the health of the mind. Among the elderly mentally handicapped, 92.3 percent are deprived of psychiatric treatment for various reasons. 94.5 percent of the mentally handicapped children and adolescents are out of the reach of medical services. Even about 29.2 percent of children and adolescents who receive treatment for mental retardation remain incomplete.
The profound and mysterious truth is that such a healthy mind is not possible without a healthy body; Without such a healthy mind, a healthy body and a healthy life are not possible. Just think - we are so restless and anxious about physical illness that there is no doctor's advice; We do not go to a psychiatrist at all for mental illness or mental problems. This is actually due to our ignorance and indifference about the mind, mental problems and mental disorders. Most people do not have a clear idea of what can happen to the mind as well as to the body.
Again, many think that mental illness means madness; Psychiatrist means crazy doctor. But that is not the case at all. Mental illness does not mean insane and a psychiatrist does not mean insane. Mental disorders can be divided into two main types - major mental disorders and minor mental disorders. What we generally call insane,
They all include guru mental disorders and this number is very low. The number of adults suffering from mental illness in Bangladesh is about 16.05 percent, of which only 1 percent are mentally ill and the rest are suffering from minor mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety, stressful mental illness, etc. and none of them are insane. All of them are treated by psychiatrists.
There are also misconceptions about mental disorders and social stigma. In many countries of the world including Bangladesh, the idea or belief of many people, the root of mental illness is the work of jinn-ghosts, black magic, sorcery or kufr-kalam etc. As a result, they are still seeking treatment through amulets, amulets, charms, etc. Or even if they seek medical help, most of the patients come to seek the help of a psychiatrist in secret or with great caution.
We don't do regular walking, exercise, going to the gym, diet control, etc. to keep the body fit. But do we do anything to keep the mind fit and healthy? Many may do meditation, yoga, etc. But these alone are not enough. Notice that every day we do not experience physical problems, such as a person does not have a fever every day or
