Hi friends. I hope u all are keeping well,both mentally and physically. Friends ,on the eve of Mental health day, I am here today to discuss with you a topic which crossed my mind recently. In last few months I have come across people both virtually and physically ,who are suffering from depression and the main cause behind it is loneliness. I have seen some people feeling lonely admist family members.
We know that, all of us are going through a crisis due to the present covid situation. Everywhere we see people suffering, anxious, losing jobs and while dealing all these problems if we donot get the feeling of empathy and compassion from our fellow family members, we tend to isolate ourselves and build an invisible , infallible wall around us which leads to loneliness and in turn depression. Now it is a known fact that we need the support of psychologist and psychiatrist to treat prolonged depression but somehow I personally feel that all the medicines and suggestions given by these specialists become more effective if the people affected for depression have a group with whom they can talk ,share their views and stay as a family, because I feel, if these lonely souls continue keeping themselves isolated,the healing power of the treatment, donot reach its optimum level and it's pace decreases.
So friends, I feel that if a group of these lonely and depressed ones are kept together and they in turn support each other as family ,the treatment they are given becomes more effective, as I am pretty sure they shall bond well because they all are going through same pain. Thus the feeling of hopelessness gets reduced to a great extent and they may see the hope to live life in a new way ,as slowly but surely the demon named loneliness which is their main enemy, vanishes in thin air .... What say..?? Pls friends do share your views and comments and also share if any of you know any place where mental issues are treated in this particular way..
