DON’T BE A STRANGER

Mental health 

May 9, 2024




Here we go, it is that time of year again, getting close to exam time, good luck everyone to those of doing disability, mental health or and subjects. Also, May is Mental health awareness month . On this paper we will be focusing on mental health.  Speak up every one, so I should speak for myself.

I thought I’d try to write something different this year so I say every year but I never know whether or not it turns out that way to be honest.

Try to spread a bit of kindness to those you come across like people working in cafes shops etc by asking how they are. Not necessarily those you pass in the street but not a bad thing if you do. Understandable if you don’t talk to those you don’t know when  we don’t know what they are like but then we shouldn’t judge book by a cover. Not an easy one, don’t be a stranger neither. 

However’ it is not a bad thing to show concern, consideration and manners to those around us. 

In all honesty a lot of us, need to remind ourselves, including even me that the mind is not all about mental health. Not all is black and white. The way we may feel, think etc is not a joke either but most of us may not show the truth, not to lie, keep secrets or and have anything to hide but not wanting to put on others. 


THE HUMAN MiND.

Understand ing the human mind why, how, when, who, what etc we think, feel, behave, react, interact and more. When it comes to making us, happy, laugh, cry, angry, sad etc. 

It can interesting how we are at different times, it would be odd if we were all the same but it makes you wonder what animals are saying to us, what they are thinking, feeling and more. 


It is easy to forget How do animals cope with their emotions, feelings, thoughts etc, how life treats them? There no animal counsellor etc is there or is there? They must face negative issues as much may be if not more than we may do. Who do depend on to understand them mentally? If anyone themselves and or one another but not all have one another. Negativity doesn’t always happen for a reason in a human’s case, let alone an animal ‘s case  but then must do, who knows? 

I guess this is because we as a whole do not fully understand when or if an animal is feeling negative because we fully do understand their launage other than say a woof or meow for example., to how they may thinking feeling etc.

Some how some way, they understand us more so than we do them. As far as I know most people I know and know have found that animals ease them. Do we help animals mentally? May we do but not sure how
