We have a clear idea about this as the symptoms of physical well-being are more clearly visible in our daily lives. The more we care about our physical well-being, the more we neglect our mental well-being. Because in many cases the symptoms of mental illness are incomprehensible to us. Or we misinterpret the whole thing. Because most people are ignorant about mental health.

All of us face temporary disasters at one time or another. We often experience emotional exhaustion or depression when dealing with personal or career challenges. At one point when the normal activities of our daily lives are disrupted, the question of our mental illness comes up.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), wellness is a balanced and healthy combination of the three physical, mental and social conditions of human beings. Being able to live freely without facing any kind of problem in the society.

Many times mental illness has a direct effect on physical well-being. As a result, our mind as well as our body becomes ill. In this case, we often do not understand whether the disease is physical or mental.

Mental well-being is a positive state of mind in which a person realizes his own abilities, adapts himself to the normal pressures of life, and contributes to his community through productive action. For mental well-being, we acquire the ability to face the various challenges of our lives.

The forms of mental problems can be different. Such as fatigue, frustration, depression, anxiety, etc. Problems like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are also significant. It is possible to get rid of the disease through proper treatment and counseling by identifying the symptoms of mental problems. Psychotherapy and meditation can be used to treat mental illness if necessary.

It is very important to seek the help of experts to cure important mental problems. Usually, if there is a mental problem, it is not treated properly. The symptoms of mental illness are ignored. Also most of the time the problems are misinterpreted. Especially in the rural areas of Bangladesh, there is no awareness about mental health. As a result, whenever someone becomes mentally ill, it is given a superstitious misinterpretation of jinn-ghosts, sorcery, etc. Without giving proper treatment to the patient for his disease, various so-called uncertified resorted to national superstitions. As a result, the patient's mental state worsens. At one stage the patient's normal life is severely disrupted.

In Bangladesh, a number of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are working on mental health, including some government mental hospitals at the capital and district city levels. In addition, the National Institute of Mental Health is working to create mental health awareness across the country.

So when we or any of our family members, friends or acquaintances become mentally ill or upset, we need to arrange proper medical care without any kind of prejudice or negligence.
