Asking For Special Treatment
Dealing with mental health issues is a lonely and tough journey for many across the globe. According to research, around 5% of the world’s population is diagnosed with depression, but it’s believed that the actual percentage is much higher than that. While mental health awareness has become more talked about and accessible, there are a lot of people who still believe that those with mental disorders ask for special treatment.
It’s important to be aware of what people with mental health struggles are going through, but that doesn’t equal pampering them because many don’t even want it. They might require a bit of extra love and care, which shouldn’t be tagged as ‘special treatment.’ It’s just being understanding, supportive, and showing them kindness.
