Greetings to you all,and a happy Monday to everyone. You're welcome to my blog.

Today, I will be speaking on the topic your mental health should be your priority.Oh yes! This is how it should be and not the other way round.

Mental health is a person's emotional, psychological, and social well-being. This mental health as the name suggests, usually affects the way people feel, think ,act, relate with people, cope with stress, and how they make decisions for themselves.

Honestly speaking,once someone is mentally unstable, he or she can't function effectively.

Having a good mental health doesn't necessarily mean you feeling excited at all times, rather it means being able to manage all your stress and challenges.

Managing your stress involve:

  1. Building and maintaining a healthy relationship.
  2. Recognizing and expressing emotions in healthy ways.
  3. Recovering from setbacks and trying as much as possible to adapt to changes.

On Saturday ,I saw a young guy I know very well. We live in the same street. He's a drugs addict and everytime I see him he's always behaving abnormal.

So on Saturday, while I was on my way to rehearsal, I saw this guy with about three guys. So one thing that I noticed was that the three young guys were discussing properly,and all of them looked very okay,aside this other guy.

So while they were discussing,he couldn't say anything. So , I was still wondering why he didn't utter a single word. But then ,I realized he took a very powerful drink alongside a particular substance.

He couldn't move an inch from where he stood. Honestly, it was my first time seeing something like that. How on earth can someone take a substance that literally stopped him for moving from where he stood to another place.

I couldn't take my eyes off him because I felt pity for him.I was shaking my head because it was too much. A guy was stirring at me for giving the drunk such a look.

It was a shameful thing to see a young, vibrant, educated, and promising man behaving in such way. A thought came to my mind. I was wondering if he has ever sit down and have a re- think about his lifestyle.

Because some people take it as a lifestyle. After all, people will talk, laugh and then walk away. They don't care to know how others feel about their attitudes, and what their children will say when they grow up to hear their father was misbehaving when he was much younger.

Stop smooking and drinking of powerful alcoholic drinks that will damage your body system, you will say no.

Please don't think I'm writing this for fun,no, it's not for fun. It should be an eye opener for everyone who wishes to do away with mental stress. Take a time to rest,and relax your brain.

Drinking and smooking everyday won't cure all your anxieties,you need a little rest,and time to heal.

Thank you all.
