Again, why can't social media family be a safe place to share mental status?

Just ask yourself, how many posts or status have you read completely. How many of you realized that even the best serious posts get so few reactions as compared to a normal photo of an object let alone be people. You don’t bother, do you? It is almost impossible to help someone who is just added in social media without any personal connection. Even in real life, the secret one person tells the other person is often exaggerated to a mass of people all starting with, ‘’Oye, don’t tell anyone… ‘’. Finally the secret is not secret anymore. Then how can you expect a social media which will be a proof for a lifetime can’t be exploited. Isn’t it the same as hitting someone on his/her weak point, basically a weakness to be vulnerable with you ?  

In reality, a person who is afraid to talk about bad habits is expected to share their story? Definitely, they can’t share because they are petrified by the judgement. And even before listening, we start advising them as if situations are always ideal as if written in religious texts. When I am pledging to open up, have I ever wondered how many times I have hurt people unknowingly? We only mourn about it until it is gone. A common misconception people have is that whoever apologizes are hundred percent wrong so that they come to  overcome their guilt. Are you the one who decides what punishment one shall have? What will you do of those mistakes if the human himself/herself will not be there tomorrow?

When did the ‘mere gratitude’ and ‘ advice to move on’ become the solutions to all mental health issues ? We all know the negative influence on mental health starts from a small classroom bullying, or might be from informal low-key jokes. You need to invest time and effort, no matter what.

 If a person opens up people are so quick to put comments like, ‘’Oh you are so sensitive’’, ‘’Don’t chase after petty issues’’, ‘’you are so immature’’. If you aren’t present in your soul, the outer affection won’t heal the wound. Moreover the forceful dictatorship of people that they need to be ‘’good’’, ‘’positive’’, ‘’compromising’’ etc is such a pressure from society. I mean they are humans they will definitely feel the negative emotions right? It’s a part of life, letting the negative energy flow in the process. These words will definitely make them feel worse as they understand that they are really so called ''wrong people''. Sometimes, even if you genuinely try to help some words in the process just as the words leaves the tongue, that might hamper the person even more so make sure to have wise conversion as much as possible.

If any person tries to open up, don’t consider them ‘’weak’’ as they were unable to solve their problems like you do everyday, consider them ‘’brave’’, not all people can share their piece of heart.
