Our society is ever-evolving, for better or worse. With the rise of technology and social media, our lives are open to scrutiny, and our youth deal with the risk of cyber-bullying any time their phone chimes.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nami.org\/learn-more\/mental-health-by-the-numbers\">National Alliance on Mental Health<\/a>, one in five adults and youths experience mental illness in the U.S. Compare that to your cubicle at work, the seats around you at school, your sports team, your family members. With statistics like this, if you haven\u2019t struggled with your own mental health issues, you know a few people who have.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/2018\/10\/mental-health-matters-to-generation-z\/mental_health_iconswarning_signs\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-54568\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-54568 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_IconsWarning_Signs.png\" alt=\"Mental Health Matters to Generation Z: Signs \" width=\"192\" height=\"184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_IconsWarning_Signs.png 192w, https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_IconsWarning_Signs-80x77.png 80w, https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_IconsWarning_Signs-36x36.png 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 192px) 100vw, 192px\" \/><\/a><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Signs of Poor Mental Health:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Extreme highs and lows<\/li>\n<li>Social withdrawal\/isolation<\/li>\n<li>Excessive worry and anxiety<\/li>\n<li>Fatigue<\/li>\n<li>Confused thinking<\/li>\n<li>Changes in sleeping or eating<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty focusing<\/li>\n<li>Prolonged sadness or anger<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you struggle with poor mental health, know you are not alone. If you feel hopeless, overwhelmed, exhausted, drained, or beaten down, know there is someone in your life who understands. Try to reach out to someone you trust: a friend, a peer, a teacher, a family member.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t need to have everything figured out when you talk to them. Simply share what you feel, how you\u2019re struggling. By sharing what\u2019s rattling around in your head, you aren\u2019t asking for pity, showing weakness, or admitting defeat. While talking about your mental health struggles won\u2019t automatically make them quiet, it will help others in your life carry the weight with you.<\/p>\n<p>If you notice your son, daughter, or friend is uninterested in something they once loved, or is isolating themselves, reach out to them. Often, when caught in a mental health spiral, they may feel their struggles aren\u2019t important enough to share with anyone. Fear of feeling like a burden might be keeping them shut behind masked emotions. No one is a burden, so don\u2019t hesitate to reach out if you suspect something is wrong.<\/p>\n<p>It takes genuine friends who make the time to check in, again and again, for some to finally accept help. Mental health battles can be scary to face, because they take an earnest level of understanding to comprehend. But it\u2019s worth it if it saves someone\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<p>For years, I\u2019ve taught dance to some wonderful kids. Some nights we\u2019ll spend extra time practicing <em>fout<\/em><em>\u00e9tte<\/em> turns, while other nights, we\u2019ll just stretch on the studio floor and talk about their lives. I reach out to those 13-18 year-olds (Gen Z) because I vividly remember being their age. As a teen, I combated depression and social anxiety. I was grieving the loss of loved ones, and I\u2019d seen people I cared about struggle with substance abuse and battle self-harm. Now, years later, I\u2019ve learned some important techniques to heal my mental health and combat my depression and anxiety. The most important is this: strengthening mental health takes daily practice, patience, and a willingness to openly speak and listen, both to others and yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Talk It Out<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/2018\/10\/mental-health-matters-to-generation-z\/mental_health_icons_talk_it_out\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-54552\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-54552 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_Talk_It_Out.png\" alt=\"Mental Health Matters to Generation Z: Chat \" width=\"192\" height=\"184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_Talk_It_Out.png 192w, https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_Talk_It_Out-80x77.png 80w, https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_Talk_It_Out-36x36.png 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 192px) 100vw, 192px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re struggling, maybe start by saying:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I feel empty<\/li>\n<li>I\u2019m just so tired<\/li>\n<li>I get too nervous<\/li>\n<li>I can\u2019t focus<\/li>\n<li>There\u2019s so much sadness<\/li>\n<li>I snap quickly and get angry<\/li>\n<li>I\u2019m at a high point, then a minute later, I\u2019m feeling low<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re listening, try responding with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I want to support you<\/li>\n<li>I\u2019m here for you<\/li>\n<li>How can I help make things easier for you?<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s okay to feel this way<\/li>\n<li>You are not crazy<\/li>\n<li>You are worth so much<\/li>\n<li>We\u2019ll get through this together<\/li>\n<li>Can you pinpoint what\u2019s triggering you?<\/li>\n<li>Can you control this?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>There Is Help<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/2018\/10\/mental-health-matters-to-generation-z\/mental_health_icons_there_is_help\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-54560\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-54560 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_There_is_Help.png\" alt=\"Mental Health Matters to Generation Z: There is help\" width=\"192\" height=\"184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_There_is_Help.png 192w, https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_There_is_Help-80x77.png 80w, https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_There_is_Help-36x36.png 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 192px) 100vw, 192px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Without a healthy mind, the rest of your body cannot be truly healthy. Health issues are often a symptom of mental health struggles, like fatigue, sleeplessness, weight gain or loss, appetite change, and more. You don\u2019t have to have a diagnosed mental illness to prioritize your mental health.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to tap into your mind throughout the day, especially in this fast-paced, high results-driven world. It\u2019s easy to get distracted during our day by work gossip, current events, family struggles, deadlines, relationship issues, or school stress. Sometimes, it\u2019s easier to keep ourselves distracted than to pause and see how our environment affects us inside.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe you\u2019re stressed about a big project deadline at work or school. Perhaps you can\u2019t focus on tasks without replaying the conversation you had last night with a friend or family member, and you wish you weren\u2019t still angry. Maybe you\u2019re anxious to start a new school, new job, or move.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s okay to feel overwhelmed. Take a beat, notice what\u2019s triggering your emotions and thought patterns, and try to readjust them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When You Feel Overwhelmed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Breathe in deeply \u2026 and out again<\/li>\n<li>Meditate to refocus<\/li>\n<li>Get 10 minutes of sunshine<\/li>\n<li>Journal\/free write<\/li>\n<li>Say no\u2014it\u2019s okay to put yourself first<\/li>\n<li>Hike, yoga, swim, jog<\/li>\n<li>Confide in someone<\/li>\n<li>Change your environment<\/li>\n<li>Make a list of your thoughts or tasks; start small<\/li>\n<li>Draw a warm bath<\/li>\n<li>Take a break outside<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you or someone in your life is battling with their mental health, they may need help from an expert. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodtherapy.org\/find-mental-health-counselors.html\">Counselors, therapists<\/a>, and doctors have years of education and are dedicated to help our well-being. You may feel ashamed or self-conscious about needing professional help, but don\u2019t listen to those negative thoughts. It\u2019s okay to need serotonin, it\u2019s okay to try melatonin to help insomnia for a while, it\u2019s okay to talk with someone about your life to get an outside opinion. It is okay to need help.<\/p>\n<p>There are plenty of counselors at schools, local mental health groups, and patient doctors who can help you decide how you get better. Every day, I use techniques and realizations I learned during therapy sessions when I get stuck in a bout of depression or realize my anxiety is triggered. Having tactics to fight my mental illness has kept me here to tell my story.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find Your Hope<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/2018\/10\/mental-health-matters-to-generation-z\/mental_health_icons_find_your_hope\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-54564\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-54564\" src=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_Find_Your_Hope.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"192\" height=\"184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_Find_Your_Hope.png 192w, https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_Find_Your_Hope-80x77.png 80w, https:\/\/whatsupusana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Mental_Health_Icons_Find_Your_Hope-36x36.png 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 192px) 100vw, 192px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You have an important story to tell.<\/p>\n<p>You can get through this.<\/p>\n<p>You are here for a reason.<\/p>\n<p>You matter.<\/p>\n<p>Your situation may seem endless, but it\u2019s worth fighting through.
