“Mental health is fundamental to our collective and individual ability as humans to think, emote, interact with each other, earn a living and enjoy life. On this basis, the promotion, protection and restoration of mental health can be regarded as a vital concern of individuals, communities and societies throughout the world.” WHO
We understand October is world mental health month. However, we at AfriCanadaHub believes it is imperative we continue to talk about this issue affecting 1 out of 5 people around us. The topic of mental health and mental health conditions can no longer be shoved under the rags.
Talking about this topic shouldn’t be a taboo. In addition to the Spiritual, let’s add therapeutic support, and sometimes medicine to allow those battling with mental health conditions gain or regain their sense of self.
