🎯Let's end the Su***de Contagion or Werther Effect. REFER someone who is struggling because HELP is AVAILABLE. 🍀🌿🌈 Talk to your GUIDANCE COUNSELOR. 🌻💚

Madalas na binibigyan ng media coverage ang mga public figure na namatay ng dahil sa su!cide. Sa mental health at psychology, may tinatawag na Werther effect na kung saan tumataas rin ang rate ng su1cide kapag na-expose ang isang tao sa dami ng rate na nawawala ng dahil rito lalo na kapag nagmumula ito sa sikat na celebrity o kilalang tao.

Sa kabilang banda, pwedeng mapababa ito sa pamamagitan ng pagbibigay rin ng mga balita kung paano ito maiiwasan. Ito naman ang kilala sa tawag na Papageno effect.

Our mental health matters just as much as our physical health. This month, let’s take a pause to care for our minds, support one another, and break the stigma around mental health.

Simple Ways to Care for Your Mental Health:
✅ Get enough sleep and rest
✅ Move your body, even for a few minutes a day
✅ Talk to someone you trust
✅ Take breaks from screens and social media
✅ Practice kindness—to yourself and others
