STRESS EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING

We, as a society, really have no idea how suffocated people are in their emotions. Most people have nobody to express themselves entirely to. Everyone is holding back their vulnerabilities to maintain the social image of a confident and happy person.

Heart-to-heart conversations have become rare, artificial and shallow. Most hearts are filled with empty defences.
Most people can’t even talk to their life-partners openly for the fear of being judged or rejected. Emotions await just a release. Social images make sure that weakness is not glorified.
Children have bottled up stress. Young people suffer from anxiety and depression.
It is just lack of social support. It is lack of non-judgmental friendships. It is a result of fast and busy lives where nobody has time to just sit and watch someone cry.
It is a result of instant and impatient lifestyle practices, that emotions have started feeling like a waste of time.
We have Whats App, Facetime and social media – and we also have stress, anxiety and depression.
List Item Text

Our forefathers had neither…. Because they talked to each other…… Because talking helps…..
The face-to-face type talking, the just-listen-to-me type talking, the hold-my-hand-and-let-me-cry type talking, the sit-next-to-me-and-listen-to-my-silence type talking… the talking where persons can be themselves and say anything they feel without the fear of any judgement or loss or rejection.

Today, we don’t like that type of talking! In fact we avoid people. Naturally, it has led to mental illnesses….which are becoming an epidemic.

There is not much we can do but we can offer listening !
Let’s let people talk without any fear. Let’s create conversations.
Let’s Start Talking Again.
