May kakilala o kaibigan ka bang dumaranas depresyon, anxiety, schizophrenia, OCD, PTSD at iba pa. o maaring ikaw mismo ang nakakaranas nito. Bilang pakikiisa sa World Mental Health Day, narito ang ilang paraan sa tamang pakikipag usap sa taong dumaranas ng mental health illness. Mga di dapat sabihin
◘ 'Nasa isip mo lang yan'
◘ 'Baguhin mo lang sarili mo'
◘ 'Mas madami pang nakakaranas ng mas malala kesa sayo'
◘ 'Nararanasan yan ng lahat'
Never compare them to anyone, just because you think its not a serious matter.
Mga dapat sabihin o mga tamang tugon
◘ 'Makakaasa ka na andito lang ako kapag kailangan mo ng tulong'
◘ 'Handa akong makinig sa lahat ng dinaranas mo'
◘ "Wag mo baguhin ang turing mo sa kanila, treat them the same way you did before.
