Today, in this world of speed and advancement, the competition has increased. With competition, stress levels and pressure to ‘fit in’ has also reached its peak. Notwithstanding the shame encompassing mental health, approximately 1 out of 5 adults suffer from mental illness.

Some of the most common mental health disorders are:

· Anxiety

· Depression

· Eating disorders

· Substance abuse

These disorders affect both intrapersonal as well as interpersonal relations. They force you to shut down and isolate you from others. In a world where mental health is still considered as a taboo and is looked down upon, to recover and achieve mental stability can be an empowering yet a challenging task. Recovery is a sensitive time where motivation from both external sources like family/friends and internal like self-motivation is important.

Recovery is a journey; it will take time, but know that it is possible. People can be prone to relapse, that is falling back to their previous lifestyle.

· Having unrealistic expectations

· Re-building relations

· Negative Environment

HOW CAN WE OVERCOME THESE?

· Maintaining hope: if you can’t believe in recovery, there will be no recovery.

· Seek help: be it professional or personal

· Take control

· Determination

Accept the way you are. Find peace within yourself.
