Today it is a luxury to have good mental health
The world has been reinvented to live it, it is full of people connected by different means, which makes it fast and overwhelming. Work, school, university and news are many things to digest in a short time.
Technology is the main thing that keeps us aware of everything that is happening and we must admit that it increases our comfort, but why do we sometimes feel uncomfortable? The answer is very simple, the forms of communication between us are innumerable, but we remain disconnected affectively.
In life, violent, dangerous and malicious acts are present. In addition, social networks are responsible for enhancing competitiveness in all sectors, from the labour market to everyday relationships.
Obligations increase and we continue, like robots, to carry the days forward. We dedicate our whole life to getting our sustenance, attending to our obligations and fulfilling our tasks. Actions, thoughts and feelings are automatic. That is why the harshness of the outside settles deep within us.
Information is increasingly accessible to everyone regardless of age, some are not prepared to handle such a volume of information, and neither are they prepared to guide children and adolescents in understanding what they see on the networks or on TV. We stick to virtual ostentations with the aim of consuming, buying and obtaining material conquests. And we forget to enjoy love and to conquer people.
Greed and competition will only bring us negative consequences. We begin to suffer from illnesses and mental disorders that affect our environment, our feelings, thoughts and relationships with the people we love, since we are not designed to withstand so much pressure, negativity and bad energy.
So, I can tell you that the best thing is to keep your mental health safe, to maintain balance, lucidity, understanding and empathy in this crazy world that surrounds us, it is the most ostentatious thing we can possess. The love we collect and spread is a priceless treasure.
We cannot forget that it will be the true feelings and affection of our loved ones that will comfort us when we are faced with difficult situations, when darkness appears, the night is prolonged and pain arrives. What saves us is what we have inside us, all the love we gather and share, together with those who truly love us.
