Just start Project

Let’s talk about Mental health

What was the project/goal that you wanted to achieve in your #juststart project?

My goal is to become a storyteller, spread awareness, and help overcome mental health issues and other hurdles that one has to suffer while encountering the community.

Why did you want to achieve this?

I want to help others because I faced this depression since my childhood, and I know how it feels when you die inside and lose every single hope to live. I want to tell them that suicide is not the only option for all this trauma and pain.

What were the challenges that you’ve faced in the past towards achieving this?

To achieve this goal, I had some difficulties in my way.

Firstly, I did not have any medium to help or create awareness about mental health. Because I belong to a remote area in the village far away from the city, it was challenging for me to achieve it. But I had in my mind, from the very early days of my life, to help other people. Due to the lack of a source to connect with other people, it was tough for me to pursue my goal.

Secondly, I felt that it would be difficult for me to face or give mental health awareness to different people who would react anonymously.

Finally, due to a lack of proper knowledge and guidance about mental health physiology and pathology, it was tough for me to console the people who already were suffering.

What was your experience completing these tasks?

It was so exciting for me while thinking about writing a blog and helping those who are suffering and are introverts or those who are scared of sharing others about their mental issues. Helping others is the first step to make this world a better place, and I want to do my part in this betterment of society. I hope it will be an excellent experience for me. INSHA ALLAH.

What were the challenges that you faced?

I’m an anti-social person, introvert and timid. So, hard for me to approach the people.

Write down the first three tasks that you need to do to achieve this goal?

So, the idea of writing blogs flashed up in my mind to have a connection with the people.

Secondly, I started reading different behavioural studies about how people in misery respond to a new idea and new thinking about their health.

Lastly, I also commenced studying different topics and blogs about Human Psychological Health to know how mental health adversely affects human behaviour.

What are the next steps?

I Will study different blogs to write a better blog on social media to contact other people. Secondly will learn human psychological health so I can better help people. I will try to interact with different people to overcome my nervousness.
