If you measure it with the small social environment that surrounds me, I am pleased to say that awareness regarding mental health is growing and promises acceptance of this idea, which is still enveloped by rejection as a result of the ideas I carried.
I came across a good number of friends and acquaintances around me, both female and male, and women who turn to psychologists without fear of classification or societal perception that puts them in question, to find solutions to common suffering in sleep disorder, anxiety regarding the future and fear of certain affairs such as romantic relationships, trauma of loss, debt crises and job loss.

By strengthening mental health, we avoid many of the pains and unusual crimes that result from mental illnesses, and from home first must be monitored behaviors and ask for intervention without fear or shame in the event of suspicion of abnormal behavior, then in schools, and finally make mental health a community culture promoted by daily or weekly practices such as haikeng, for example!
