Kelis Labissiere Discussion 2

If I were to write a piece of literature that is non social and non economic based, I would write about mental health. I would talk about the importance of maintaining good mental wellbeing, different coping mechanisms and how one can understand their emotions. Mental health plays I big role in everyone’s lives but it’s not deemed as important as many others issues or it’s not acknowledged as much. Mental health is never really talked about until someone lashes out or does the abnormal, making people defend or try to figure out what might have been the cause for one to do an outlandish act. Mental health should be talked about always and everyone should be encouraged to take care of their mental, even without therapy. They should have personal practices or healthy coping mechanisms to help themselves. Life is tough and everyone needs help some way somehow. The titles I might use for this piece of literature might be “Mind Matters” or “breaking the silence” or “Coping, Healing, and Understanding”.
