At some point in life, many people develop a mental problem. While most people get over it, for others, it doesn't go away easily.
The WHO says that about 20 percent of teenagers worldwide suffer from mental illness. The number of teenagers with mental illness around the world has increased by half by 2020. It becomes one of the main causes of illness, and even death.
In China, the picture isn't bright, either. About one tenth of teenagers under the age of 17 have a mental health challenge.
The world is changing fast. Study and relationships have always caused stress, but today the stress is much higher than before, the WHO said.
A research centre in Oxford University says that young people today have big stresses at school. For example, they experience bullying . In a 2017 report, the centre noted that the Internet was a special source of stress. Online, young people often see "messages about perfection" and this causes the young "great uncertainty about their futures", says the centre.
Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don't ask for help with their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they say that they are in mental trouble. Elaine Peng, a US mental health educator, makes a similar point. And in the UK, over three quarters of young people believe their mental problems have a social stigma. It is reported in 2017 that a quarter of young UK people wouldn't ask for help if they developed a mental problem.
Young people who don't ask for help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Elaine Peng warned that, "If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever."
"My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—ask for help," he told China Daily.
Tourist maps Tourist maps have signs to show places of interest in an area. When tourists read these maps, it is easy for them to find where to go and what to see in a place and it is easy for them to go and find their ways to these places, too. Road maps Road maps show large areas so that people can plan long trips. We use different numbers to stand for different roads. For example, if you want to go to Wood Green, you just follow No.621 Road and keep looking at the road signs. Distribution maps Distribution (分布) maps use colors or signs to show facts about an area. For example, what languages people speak, how many people live in an area, how cold and hot some places are, or whether a place is short of water. |
