2021-08-13 15:00:11 It's time for another Funtimes Fridays! Let's play a game of choices!

Elliot is an 18-year-old male who is currently studying in a polytechnic. He is the captain and the star player of the football team.

About 3 months ago, Elliot started to skip trainings and when he does come for it, he is always exhausted. Because of his bad attendance, he has later stripped of his captain role and was no longer the team's star player. As a result, his teammates turned their backs on him and judged him for being lazy. His teammates turned their backs on him and judged him for being lazy. Many of them thought that Elliot was simply arrogant – after all, since he was captain and star player, he could do whatever he wanted. Open / Comment

2021-08-11 02:00:11 Food For Thought
Put yourself in the shoes of someone experiencing mental illness. Every day, you are battling with demons in your mind. On top of that, society constantly shuns away from you, and your friends and family aren’t being supportive. It’s unpleasant, isn’t it?

As the next generation of leaders in Singapore, let’s strive to make Singapore a supportive and inclusive place for all!

2021-08-11 02:00:11 Do you think mental health stigma is present in Singapore?

Mental Health Stigma refers to societal disapproval. It occurs when society shames people diagnosed with a mental illness or those who seek help for emotional distress (such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or PTSD).

This stigma affects a person as it may cause them to be denied equal life opportunities in areas such as employment and housing. In addition, they may also face discrimination from others.

Sad to say that the culture and environment around us largely influence it.

A recent study by IMH showed that mental health stigma is indeed present on our shores. For deeper reading, do check out this research piece by IMH!
