Tough on Drugs

Good mental health is an important element of overall health and well being. Definitions of mental health are difficult and many have been suggested.


Ensuring that our basic needs are met; this incorporates both a range of social and psychological conditions such as adequate food and shelter, as well as higher needs such as affectionate relationships and membership of a group.


Nurturing the development of skills such as the ability to manage change, recognise and communicate our feelings as well as cope with stress in our environment.


Acknowledge that feelings and beliefs such as feeling worthy, understanding and acceptance that psychological or emotional problems can and do occur in ourselves and others; in addition, good mental health involves feeling positive about self and others.

Everyone has mental health needs, not just those with a diagnosis of mental illness.

The mental well being of children and young people can be affected if they suffer the breakdown of close personal relationships and do not have emotional support.

There is evidence that among young people, boys have less emotional support than girls. Greater personal isolation during teenage years may make boys and young men more vulnerable to mental health problems. Rates of suicide among young men in particular cause concern within the Eastern Board area.

I think everyone should practice meditation to some level. Meditation is a exercise for mind. If we need exercise for body mind also seek a workout.

Hello everyone,

I am going to discuss some tips to reduce depression.

1. Do not read newspapers.

Newspapers publish negative stories most of the time. Even in peaceful periods, newspapers will find the worst in humanity and place negative stories on display in order to promote sales and subscribers. Stories focused on War, rebellion, death, destruction, doom and despair abound in the newspapers.

You will not miss any news. Friends, family, and your local air raid siren will keep you informed if your attention is needed. Only pay attention to the things you can control in your life.

Stop reading the newspaper and reduce the negative input to your brain.

2. Turn off your television.

Watching and listening about the horrible economy and the losses associated with War will add to depression. In fact, you guarantee the feeling of helplessness. Helplessness allows depression to nurture. If you really need to watch or listen to these kinds of news stories, promise yourself you will bury yourself in the documentaries that are sure to follow in the next 5 or 10 years. A way you can eliminate most of the negative input to your brain is by setting it aside for a date somewhere in the future. I guarantee in the future, you will not find it very interesting.

When visitors come to your home, make sure you turn off your television and keep it off. News television broadcasters are fighting for your guests' attention as they promote despair, war, death, and destruction with many headline news interruptions. Those little banners that run across the bottom of the screen achieve your attention and they take hold of your consciousness. Television will diminish your positive spirit.

we should give some rest to the mind. most of us just do exercise for the body but not the mind. there are many practices to calm your mind. for every human corruption mind is the step stone. as it is said "Be the Master of Your Mind"
