It can severely impact a person\u2019s life, making it difficult for individuals to focus at work and in school. Mental illnesses such as depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, dementia, anxiety disorders among others can have a serious, detrimental impact on an individual\u2019s well-being and life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou feel so unmotivated, you don\u2019t want to get out of bed,\u201d Aamnah Husain, a counseling psychologist at German Neuroscience Center in Dubai, told Re:Set.<\/p>\n<h2>Dealing with a mental illness like depression takes a huge toll on one\u2019s sense of self, making it very difficult for a person to put themselves out there in their personal and professional lives, Husain said.<\/h2>\n<p>According to Husain, suppressing emotions may make things worse and cause a person to feel increasingly anxious. For someone with depression, having a conversation about mental health can be tricky. \u201cWhen you\u2019re struggling, you don\u2019t want to go around talking about it,\u201d she said, adding that people often unknowingly make fun of someone\u2019s pain without realizing how exhausting it can be to live through it. \u201cI wish someone would come in [for help] earlier,\u201d she said, explaining that many people wait for too long before seeking professional advice.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s crucial to teach children to talk freely about their emotions and not encourage harmful stereotypes from an early age, Husain emphasized. \u201cFor boys, there\u2019s an expectation they should fix their issues. Being aggressive is acceptable but crying is not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to WHO data, 13% of women across the world battle mental health illnesses post delivery, most notably depression. Postnatal depression is characterized by several symptoms after giving birth such as constantly feeling low, persistent exhaustion, sleep issues, trouble focusing on tasks and unable to connect with one\u2019s baby among others. [\u2026]\n<h2>\u201cI don\u2019t think therapy should be very directive. Advice giving should be minimum\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>According to Husain, the equation between a therapist and their patient is complex and dependent on several factors such as where they\u2019re from, their past experiences and their value system. \u201cI don\u2019t think therapy should be very directive. Advice giving should be minimum,\u201d Husain told Re:Set, adding that the therapist should help a patient manage their symptoms without telling them what to do with their life. \u201cThe person is coming to you for hope, for a different perspective. It is a partnership. The decision-making should be solely the client\u2019s,\u201d she said, stressing that nonjudgmental acceptance is important.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to the stigma attached to mental illnesses, Husain believes people of authority, celebrities and friends can make a difference. \u201cWhen influencers talk about mental health, it starts to affect the population,\u201d she said. The psychologist also encourages people to educate themselves on mental health if they know a loved one is battling mental health problems.
