10 Ways Youth Can Use Social Media to Endorse Mental Health

10 ways Youth Can Use Social Media to Endorse Mental Health

Give the same importance to mental health that is given to physical health. Physical health gives us the mobility to move, work and play. Mental health makes us capable of handling our emotions and facing the trials and tribulations of life head-on. While there is a lot of awareness about physical health, the same is lacking for Mental health. Taking cognizance of the grey areas about Mental Health, the mindful youth of today should dispel the myths and throw light on the topic. Here are 10 Ways Youth Can Use Social Media to Endorse Mental Health.

These days, the media focuses and highlights only negativity and disastrous events that take place. In such a scenario, it is genuinely correct to say that it’s time to scatter the Mental health terminology and make it a trending topic.

10 Ways Youth Can Use Social Media to Endorse Mental Health

Today’s youth are endorsing products they may never use on Insta or tweeting about making the world a global village. They can swap gossipy discussions about celebs and reel-life heroes, rumour-mongering and jingoism with candid conversations about fundamental issues such as mental health.   

Implausible technology has empowered the youth of today, and it is essential that they use it constructively. And what better platform than social media to promote mental health, categorically?

10 ways Youth Can Use Social Media to Endorse Mental Health

1. Set a Trend

Use your handle to spread positive vibes and talk about mental health. Soon, others will follow and make it a trend.

2. Share Self-Care Tips

Share self-care tips through videos, reels or carousels. Social media is an ideal place to convey how you do it. You can be a trendsetter and encourage others to follow suit.

3. Lead a Healthy Lifestyle

If you are leading a healthy lifestyle through gym, sports, yoga or a nutritious diet, then motivate others to jump on the bandwagon When your contemporaries and friends see your posts on wholesome living, it fills them with the strength of purpose to take care of their own body and mind.

 4. Share Your Story

If you are a go-getter and your life is inspirational, share your extraordinary life experiences. These could enrich and reward experiences like your learning curve or inspirational moments of your journey. This is an incredible way of helping, connecting, and sensitizing your peers about mental health.

5. End the Stigma, Talk About Mental Health

10 ways Youth Can Use Social Media to Endorse Mental Health

Kick-start open dialogues on mental health. Championing the cause would lead to cushioning breaking points. We still consider Mental health as shameful and as a weakness. You can discuss how we can lead sound and stable lives which your peers could relate with.

6. Broadcast Positivity Over Negativity

10 ways Youth Can Use Social Media to Endorse Mental Health

The outcome of positive emotions leads to an expansive gamut of thoughts and actions. They evoke a desire to be happy and playful. Growing in all areas leads to a sense of growth and well-being. Like the beauty of life all around us, technology is also beautiful. Use it to hearten and inspire others rather than circulate negativity online. Be positive and spread smiles.

7. Don’t be Judgmental

Judgement nowadays can be toxic, especially on Social media. Refrain from criticising behaviour, looks, dressing sense or even the choice of food. Every choice you make on social media affects others greatly. Instead of being critical, support others online. Polarize your thoughts as your negativity can affect the mental health of others in a detrimental way.

8. Spread Cyberkindness

Done uses technology to be a cyberbully and stalk, intimidate, shame, or target others to abuse them socially or mentally. Spread #Cyberkindness to love, encourage, help, make a difference, strengthen emotionally or uplift mentally to make life easier.

9. Educate Yourself

Albert Einstein said, “Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.”. Do some simple research and learn more about mental health. Recognize the triggers and gain coping skills thru social media and online portals.

10.Start a Mental Health Blog that Inspires

Mental illness is a very lonely world and no one should have to face mental health problems alone. Real-life stories and blogs can play a productive role. A mental health blog gives you room to vent and share your journey that would help others. You can promote your blog through social media and raise awareness about mental health by sharing your own experiences. Join a community like Blogchatter, who are torch-bearers for different causes.

You have the world at your fingertips, make a difference, make it a better place for you and for me and the entire world.

    I totally agree with all the points you’ve shared Harjeet… esp. sharing your story/blogging. From experience I know that sharing stories can be a very powerful tool to get the attention of people. Many good life coaches always have a story to share and that’s how the audience relates to them. I also like the part about educating ourselves. Through your blogs and many others’ I have learnt a great deal on mental health.

    Your tips are really helpful. Social media does have both positive and negative impact. It gives confidence too and sometimes affect on a mental health too. But if youth use these tips and share positively it will definitely increase the mental health awareness.

    I agree with all your points, Harjeet, and I would like to add that if you don’t do any of the aforementioned things, you should at least try using your social media handle to promote a friend’s business or blog.

    Your post is a breath of fresh air. Excellent tips as always. Social media is a mess these days, particularly for mental health. We need more people endorsing mental health instead of doing a number on it.

    Great points you’ve highlighted! This actually has been my goal on my SM but more focused on women specifically mothers though. I truly believe SM has a great potential if only used on a positive note.

    These are some great points. SM has a notorious reputation for spoiling mental health. I , on the other hand draw inspiration from SM. I also try to inspire people in a positive way through my Instagram posts.
