Mental health is a crucial part of childhood and adolescence development. Addressing these challenges early is about giving young people the tools to thrive, succeed in school, and build healthy relationships as they grow.

Therefore letโ€™s invest in early intervention for the young people in Zambia๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฒ

Speaking to someone is the first step to getting help. It helps you process your emotions, reduces stress and allows you to look at your situation with a new perspective.

Through our school Mental-Up program, we strive to help young learners understand the importance of speaking out how they are feeling and also help them identify people they can reach out to for support.

If you are feeling distressed or sad, donโ€™t bottle up yourself feelings. Remember, silence doesnโ€™t protect you, support does ๐Ÿ’š

On March 24th 2026, The Mindful Drop conducted a school Mental-Up outreach at Ellensdale School in Chongwe.

During this visit, we engaged with over 123 Form I learners in an interactive session that amplified the mental health effects of substance abuse, identity struggles and peer pressure.

The session was filled with honest conversations on some of the identity struggles that young people face and their thoughts on substance use in relation to mental health. At the core of these conversations, were healthy strategies to help the young learners cope with life stresses and pressures.

We are extremely grateful for the school management at Ellensdale for the warm reception, and to the young learners for the vital conversations. Lastly, our sincere gratitude goes to Penmarks Limited for making these outreaches possible and creating a supportive learning environment for the learners through the stationary donations.

In todayโ€™s Mental-Up class, led by Ms Chikwa, we explored the mental health context in Zambia, from contributing factors, barriers, policies, collaboration and careers in mental health that ambassadors can leverage on in improving mental health.

While Zambia has made significant progress in recognizing mental health as a major public health concern, some gaps still exists. She also emphasized on the need to look at mental health from an holistic approach as mental health is dynamic, subjective and intersects with other health issues, thereby making it more complex.

The class was filled with insightful contributions from the ambassadors, and in closing, Ms Chikwa urged them to find their role, looking at the weight of mental health.

Sometimes the hardest thing is pretending youโ€™re okay even when youโ€™re not. ๐Ÿ˜ž

You may look fine on the outside, but in the inside you feel tired, overwhelmed or lost and thatโ€™s more common than people think.

You donโ€™t have to carry it all alone.

Speaking up doesnโ€™t make you weak, it means you are taking a step towards feeling better.

If today feels heavy, reach out. Talk to someone you trust or connect with us.
There is support, and there is hope.

The visits were filled with so much honest conversations on mental health and personal stories. We are filled with gratitude for the meaningful connections built with all the young learners at Prince Takamando and Sisabelo Saka Inclusive Schools during this program.

Whilst the visits end here, the journey of impact continues.
