"An early fall spike in influenza cases has pushed U.S. hospitalization rates for the illness to the highest in a decade for this time of year . . . About 5% fewer pregnant people have received flu shots so far this season, which officials say is especially worrisome because the vaccine protects both the expecting mother and her baby, officials added.

10 October is World Mental Health Day

The overall objective of World Mental Health Day is to raise awareness of mental health issues around the world and to mobilize efforts in support of mental health. More needs to be done to make mental health care a reality for people worldwide.

World Mental Health Day 2022 "Make mental health for all a global priority"

World Mental Health Day is marked every year on October 10 to raise awareness about mental health around the world and to mobilize efforts to support those experiencing mental health issues. Every year since 2013, the World Health Organization (WHO) has organized a global campaign for World Mental Health Day. The World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH) announced the theme for World Mental Health Day 2022, which is ‘Make mental health for all a global priority”.

Ways to Celebrate World Mental Health Day

Now that you know more about World Mental Health Day and the purpose behind it, you may be wondering how you can participate this year. There are multiple ways to get involved and advocate for better mental health access everywhere.

One way is to consider volunteering at a local crisis center or donating to one in your community.

Another great way to celebrate this day is to check on a friend or loved one who has been struggling. Listen to them and offer to bring them dinner, help them clean, or do another task that might be difficult for them.

You can also get involved by educating yourself on mental illnesses. You could read a book or watch a documentary to learn more. If you experience mental illness yourself, you might take this opportunity to share your story, or simply to take extra time for self-care.
