Mental Health Care: When You’re Learning to Be Okay With Yourself - 8 Things That Shouldn't Be Normal

In today's world, there are many things we've come to accept as normal, but it's time we challenge these harmful norms. This video delves into the critical issues that affect our mental health and overall well-being, shedding light on aspects of our lives that desperately need change. Mental health stigma is something we must break free from. Too often, people suffer in silence, feeling ashamed to seek help. It's time we normalize conversations about mental health and create an environment where everyone feels safe to share their struggles without fear of judgment. Society often imposes unrealistic expectations on us, creating immense pressure to conform. Challenging these societal pressures and embracing our authentic selves is a courageous step towards true happiness and fulfillment. #mentalhealth #society Writer: Lightoflights Script Editor & Manager: Kelly Soong Voice Over: Amanda Silvera (http://www.youtube.com/amandasilvera Animator: Sarimopi YouTube Manager: Cindy Cheong References 18 “Normal” Things In Our Society That Are Actually, Pretty Weird, Cruel, Damaging, Etc.
