    Prioritizing Mental Health: A Review

    Mental health plays a vital role for overall well-being, psychological, emotional, and social

    aspects. It is crucial in an individual’s ability to be productive, maintain healthy relationships,

    and cope with existing problems. Mental health is essential at every stage of life, but various

    factors can affect it, Including life experiences, hereditary factors, and external stressors.

    According to a report by the World Health Organization (WHO), promoting mental health and

    well-being is vital for overall health and productivity (WHO, 2014). While mental health issues

    are common, they are distinct from mental illnesses, recognizing the importance of mental

    health and seeking help when needed is essential.

    Neglecting the importance of mental health can cause serious consequences. Mental health is

    not something to be taken for granted. As of today, it is very great to see a shift in mental health

    awareness amongst people as more individuals have come forward and start to seek help.

    Mental health should not just be a one man responsibility but every community should help

    conquer this problem.

    Many individuals struggle with mental health issues therefore understanding the importance of

    external support from either family or friends and treatment should change not just the people

    but more specifically the higher sectors of the society’s belief in the significance of prioritizing

    mental well-being. It’s a reminder that mental health should be part of everyone’s everyday

    conversations and should not be neglected.


    In today’s world, mental health issues have become increasingly prevalent, partly due to the

    stresses of modern life, social changes, and the impact of global events. The COVID-19

    pandemic, for instance, has highlighted the need for mental health support on a global scale

    which has led to a rise in anxiety and depression (Pfefferbaum & North, 2020). Furthermore, the

    burden on students’ mental health persists, with a recent study in the Journal of American

    College Health highlighting academic stress as a significant concern (Conley & Chiu, 2021).

    There’s no really denying how much academic stress has drained students and deeply impacted

    their mental stability. With this, problems surrounding mental health, should not just be an

    individual concern but rather a societal one.

    As mental health problems keep on progressing, people should also play their part by increasing

    awareness, improving access to services, and building a supportive community for all

    individuals. In addition, investing in mental health services and policies can prevent a significant

    number of mental health issues and improve overall well-being (Patel, et al., 2018). People can

    slowly address the rising challenges related to mental health, and in time, lead a more open and

    strong community in which every individual can flourish with the support they need.
