To make sure we’re looking out for one another, Redditors have recently been sharing subtle signs of mental health struggles that often go unnoticed. Below, you’ll find some eye-opening replies that might remind you to check in with your loved ones, as well as conversations with Lau Ciocan, Founder of Mentoring Advocacy Network, and registered psychotherapist and life coach Krista Roesler from Psych Company! sunbeamshadow , John Mathew Smith 2001 / Flickr Report
When it comes to the common signs of mental health struggles to look out for, Lau says, “It’s important to bear in mind that the signs of mental health challenges might differ from person to person and we might miss them in some people who ‘camouflage’ or ‘mask’ their struggles well.” Lunanymous , Kamaji Ogino / pexels Report

“I would also say that one should assess for risk of suicide or harm, and if serious contact the relevant professional services,” the mental health expert added. “In parallel, one should encourage the person to get the appropriate professional help and offer assistance and support in doing so.” llcucf80 , cottonbro studio / Pexels Report

“Common signs of mental health struggles that people might not be aware of or know to look for include changes in behavior, personality, or emotional expression,” the expert shared. “For instance, someone who used to openly share their feelings might become more quiet and distant, while someone who was previously very excitable may become unusually calm. Similarly, a person who was kind and caring might start acting unkind, and someone who seemed sad might appear outwardly content.” Saldar1234 , Oleksandr P / Pexels Report
“Changes in sleeping patterns are another important indicator. Look for signs such as sleeping too much, too little, experiencing insomnia, or persistent fatigue,” the expert says. “Additionally, certain risk factors can signal underlying issues, including financial problems, legal troubles, trauma, chronic pain, health issues, relationship problems, or substance abuse.” elmatador12 , Alex Green / Pexels Report

“There’s a common myth that if someone appears beautiful, popular, or successful, they must be happy, but that’s not always true. Many people who seem successful or outwardly happy, like Matthew Perry, Kate Spade, and Robin Williams, may actually be struggling with deep issues. The stigma around depression and seeking mental health help often leads individuals to keep their struggles and suicidal thoughts to themselves.” BobbyLee_Swagger , Armin Rimoldi / Pexels Report

“Holding in these emotions can create a heavy burden. Sharing feelings and not facing challenges alone can greatly help in managing them better and facilitate healing. Those who end their lives often see it as a solution to feelings of helplessness and hopelessness,” she explained. “This usually stems from a lack of support and unhealthy coping mechanisms, underscoring the importance of reaching out for help and finding healthier ways to address life’s difficulties.” Shh-poster , William Fortunato / Pexels Report
