Comparison

...See more While comparing ourselves to others is a natural human tendency, we should not compare ourselves to others as it can harm our mental health. One of the biggest problems we have today is always trying to look at the lives of others and thinking that we are not enough or that we are not doing enough. This thing of comparing ourselves with others can be very toxic to our mental health. It is essential to love and accept ourselves for how we are. And it is important to know that everyone's life is different, and we can't try to live the lives of others by trying to be like them. Instead of comparing ourselves to others, we should try comparing ourselves to our past selves, which can help us improve and enhance our personal growth.  https://yourmentalhealthpal.com/effective-tips-on-how-to-stop-comparing-yourself-to-others/

The art of Forgiving

...See more Forgiveness is important because it benefits both the person forgiving and the one being forgiven. Forgiveness matters because it allows us to heal emotionally, leading to improved relationships, personal growth, better mental health, inner peace, compassion, and empathy, and breaking negative cycles of holding grudges. Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting or condoning wrongdoing, but it is about freeing oneself from the burden of anger and resentment to create space for growth and healing. https://yourmentalhealthpal.com/solid-tips-on-how-to-ask-for-forgiveness/

Cultivating Compassion
Healthy Living / by Heera72

...See more Cultivating compassion and mindfulness starts with enhancing self-awareness, empathy, and connection with ourselves and others. It is because when we know ourselves better in every way- what we like, what hurts us, what we dislike, and our emotions,  it might be easy for us to understand the feelings of others better.  While putting ourselves before others is a very good thing, we must be compassionate towards other people and their feelings. Being empathetic and kind can often be a task in a cold and disconnected world. But it is crucial to choose to be kind and compassionate in this world over everything. https://yourmentalhealthpal.com/understanding-what-is-loving-kindness-meditation/

Impostor Syndrome
Work & Career / by Heera72

...See more Today, some people suffer from impostor syndrome as a result of living in a high-achievement culture and society.  Impostor syndrome is a psychological phenomenon where individuals doubt their abilities, accomplishments, and competence. They don't give credit to the success they have acquired but rather fear it to be acquired because of external factors rather than their talent. It can often occur in various situations when individuals transition to a new place or role or because of societal expectations or pressures that amplify the need to prove themselves. That is why it is essential to live without the need to satisfy societal pressures and celebrate our little wins, however small they can be, without the need to please everyone and constantly compare our lives and successes with others. https://yourmentalhealthpal.com/unmasking-five-types-of-imposter-syndrome/

Self-Respect
Gateway to Growth Paths / by Heera72
Last post
 Friday
...See more Self-respect matters because it is the foundation that forms our self-esteem and directly impacts how we perceive ourselves. It is about valuing ourselves for who we are and living according to our beliefs and values. Self-respect helps us bring out who we are- our values and principles- and to live authentically without compromising them. Self-respect is not about feeling superior; it is about valuing ourselves before others and living in a way that reflects it. It is essential to be who we are and respect ourselves for it.

...See more Most of us in our lives might have encountered a period that might have emotionally drained us or made us feel empty from within. Feeling empty and emotionless from within is a complex emotional state that can be influenced by any factor like- social, psychological, or physiological factors. Certain mental health conditions can also make us emotionally numb to many things because we have suppressed our emotions for a long time. It is essential to know the cause of it and seek help if needed, as ignoring the experience or failing to acknowledge it can lead to many other psychological problems. https://yourmentalhealthpal.com/how-to-cope-with-feeling-empty-inside/

...See more In our busy lives, we often don't get enough rest because of our hectic work and feel exhausted. It is when this cycle continues that we suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome- where we are not able to do any tasks or even our daily activities as we end up feeling intense fatigue. Overwhelming fatigue characterizes Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. That is why getting enough rest and taking breaks when needed is essential. CFS can severely impact our daily lives and make it hard for us to do our everyday tasks, even the smallest of things, and it is necessary to get help when needed. https://yourmentalhealthpal.com/what-is-chronic-fatigue-syndrome/

Understanding OCD
OCD & Related Behaviors / by Heera72
Last post
 Thursday
...See more Somewhere, OCD has become the most misused or misrepresented word in the field of Mental health; rather than considering it as a mental health disorder that is characterized by a cycle of behavior, it is linked to someone being a neat freak or someone who washes hands often. People need to understand that this is a disorder characterized by persistent thoughts- obsessions, and repetitive acts- compulsions that are performed to reduce distress. OCD doesn't always involve cleanliness or neatness and is not a personality trait. https://yourmentalhealthpal.com/facts-about-ocd-you-should-know/
