If I had a cold, I wouldn't think twice about telling my friends or my doctor. For some reason, however, if I had a mental(心理的)problem, I might not treat it in the same way.
At my elementary school, mental health was not discussed even once as far as I can remember. This makes me wonder how many other schools are failing to educate their students on this topic. It makes me sad that children growing up with mental illness may feel like it is something to be ashamed of(对……感到羞耻的)because it is never discussed. When I reached high school, mental health was still seldom discussed. But when it was in the topic of health or biology class, I was given a broad idea that mental illness was a "thing" that really lies.
In my opinion, overstressed high school students could benefit(获益)greatly from more deep discussions about how to deal with mental health problems, such as how to know when you should care about yourself or a friend, or who to reach out for help. I know my friends and I could have benefited. Even if you personally have never faced mental health problems, someone you know is sure to have, and you can offer timely help.
I also believe we need to normalize discussions about mental health at an early age, instead of hiding them from sight. At school, I saw a student's report on mental health education and how it can be carried out in the American school system. The student used the film Inside Out to explain feelings to younger kids. This report made me believe that it, is possible to start these discussions at a young age if we try.
Although we can't change the way people think about mental health over one night, there are still things we can do. Asking our friends how they're feeling is a good start.
