𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗶 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗲.......!

On Tuesday, 2nd of Dec, the Healthifirst team carried out a meaningful outreach at GB Downtown, reaching over 250 students with impactful education on sexual and reproductive health.
We emphasized the importance of abstinence, responsible decision-making, and the consequences of risky sexual behaviors on their health, academics, and future goals.

We also sensitized the students on drug abuse, highlighting how substance misuse can negatively affect their studies, derail their ambitions, and limit their future career opportunities.

This outreach was made possible thanks to the dedication and teamwork of Ebua Collins , Tatagheng Nora Apianyui , and Cholong Sophie.

At Healthifirst, we remain committed to empowering young people with the knowledge they need to make safe, informed, and healthy choices.

How much❔How Often❔How long❔

HEALTHIFIRST is very delighted to announce that this Sunday's webinar on DEPRESSION was an outstanding success

47 individuals had their views changed and now the gap in mental healthcare access has been bridged by 47 steps. ✨

Here are 7 key lessons from the event
1️⃣ Depression is NOT a sign of weakness, it's NOT a "White-man's" thing and it's definitely NOT gender biased (for females only❌)

2️⃣It's ok to be overwhelmed but if your symptoms persist beyond 5 consecutive days, then it's shifted towards Depression!

3️⃣Hyperactivity and exaggerated joy are the most commonly missed depressive symptoms- Don't be fooled!

4️⃣Having a relationship with yourself and knowing YOU is key so as to identify when you're drifting

5️⃣Daily mental "self check":_Assess your feelings, thoughts and actions. Ask yourself "how much?, how often? and how long?" you were in that state!

6️⃣Strength is divine but it's ok to lean on a shoulder sometimes. Open up and do so honestly inorder to get the best help for YOU!

7️⃣Prevention=MC³: Mindfulness, Connection, Conversation, Love Care(selfCare + care for others)

We would like to appreciate our speakers Margret Tendai Mwale, Sharon Nambakire and Platine Nyuyki,MD (Sir Healthi). Thank you for your insightful contributions.

To all who participated, none of this would've been possible without you.🤍

This is the first of many more mental health webinars to come, so please stay tuned❕
Cheers To taking more steps further!🥂
