September 10, World Su***de Prevention Day, is an opportunity to come together to raise awareness about su***de and su***de prevention.

According to WHO- 1 person dies every 40 seconds from su***de.

Everyone goes through tough situations at some point in their life. Having someone to talk to can make a big difference. If someone wants to share you something, just listen to them, take them seriously and help them talk about their thoughts and feelings. You don't have to be an expert to listen.

Let's break this stigma and talk about mental health.

Your mental health is as important as physical health.

Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is always greater than any obstacles.

Sexual harassment and assault have become global issues

Only 10% of females approached the police for help in case of Sexual Assault in Kathmandu Valley.

This suggests that the absence of a strong law against assaults is not the only factor behind the low reporting. There are other factors at play, including low conviction rates in such crimes that prevent women from reporting sexual assaults.

Everyone has a role to play in ending violence against girls and women. So, when a girl or a woman tells her story, hear her. Listen and back her up.

Do you know why गाईजात्रा is celebrated?

The festival commemorates the death of people during the year, mainly in Kathmandu valley by the Newar community. Despite death being the origin of this festival, the people also gather to celebrate life instead of mourning the death of their loved ones.

Clinical depression is a more severe form of depression, also known as major depression or major depressive disorder.

One in every four people suffers from anxiety and depression. There is still a strong stigma attached to depression which makes people feel ashamed to talk about it.

People talk about physical fitness, but they forget that mental health is equally important.

There remains a stigma behind mental health but through an increase in talking about it we can begin to break that stigma.

Don’t keep quiet, speak up and speak out.
