In addition to continuing to improve the quality of life of people with mental illness and their families, enhancing skills such as self-improvement, responsibility, autonomy, participation and confidence, among others, to improve self-esteem.World Mental Health Day 2020This year's World Mental Health Day (October 10) is celebrated at a time when our daily lives have been significantly disrupted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The last few months have brought many challenges: for health personnel, who provide their services in difficult circumstances, and go to work in fear of taking COVID-19 home; for students, who have had to adapt to distance classes, with little contact with teachers and classmates, and full of anxiety about their future; for workers, whose livelihoods are threatened; for the vast number of people trapped in poverty or in fragile humanitarian settings with very little protection against COVID-19; and for people with mental health conditions,many of which are even more socially isolated than before.
Not to mention managing the pain of losing a loved one, sometimes without being able to say goodbye.The economic consequences of the pandemic are already being felt everywhere, as companies lay off staff in an attempt to save the business, or are forced to shut down entirely.Based on past emergencies, mental health and psychosocial support needs are expected to increase significantly in the coming months and years.
Investing in national and international mental health programs, underfunded for years, is more important than ever.For this reason, this year's World Mental Health Day campaign has set out to achieve increased investments in favor of mental health. Source: World Health Organization.
