The Impact of Toxic Positivity on Mental Health

Image
Hello, I would be sharing with you a topic I find common among us from this part of the world. Toxic Positivity, which I call “Over Positive”. Toxic positivity is the belief that no matter how bad a situation is, people should always stay positive. So, w hile positive thinking is important, forcing it all the time can be harmful. It can make people feel like their real emotions don’t matter.   When someone is sad, anxious, or frustrated, they need support, not just happy words like "Just stay positive!" Ignoring real feelings can make a person feel unheard and alone. Imagine telling a friend about a tough day at work, and instead of listening, they say, "At least you have a job!"

MEN'S MENTAL HEALTH AND SOCIETAL EXPECTATIONS

  Hey guys, it is Men’s Mental Health Month; what better time to discuss this very important topic? Please share with that man you know, as you may be saving a life! Now, let's get to it… Imagine Jide, a 35-year-old father of two. He is on his very crisp suit and tie every morning, ready to conquer the corporate world. To his colleagues, he's the epitome of success—a senior manager with a hefty paycheck. But beneath this polished exterior, Jide grapples with an invisible burden. The societal pressure to be the perfect provider, an unwavering rock for his family, and a fearless leader at work weighs heavily on his mental health. Jide’s story is not unique. Many men face similar societal pressures that can have profound effects on their mental well-being. These pressures, often rooted in traditional masculine norms, can lead to a host of mental health issues, from anxiety and depression to substance abuse and even suicidal thoughts and suicide itself. From a young age, boys are ...
