Recently, people shared some signs that might indicate a person is having a tough time with their mental health. Some shared the things they wished others noticed about them when they needed help. Others shared experiences with loved ones who have been or are still struggling. Bored Panda reached out to the Redditor who asked this question, and they were kind enough to have a chat with us.

The question was inspired by the user’s own struggles with mental health, such as depression, anxiety, and alcoholism, as well as the issues of the people in their immediate circle. “I developed an interest in observing these issues and learning about different ways of treating them,” the Redditor told us.

They also have had some personal experience with this and kindly agreed to share it with our readers. “If I myself would have seriously looked at my substance abuse earlier, I would have avoided a bad psychological breakdown and [the] consequences that followed,” the Redditor gets brutally honest.

“I think people are more understanding and appreciative towards mental health than before. The [education] towards recognition and tolerance is better, though there is a huge need for that in schools, especially [for people of] younger ages,” the user tells Bored Panda. starkissedjade , Annie Spratt / unsplash (not the actual photo) Report
