Over the past year, there haven’t been many steps taken to better the way mental health is dealt with across the world. That’s mainly because in many areas taking care of your mental health is seen as taboo still, despite there being so many causes for mental issues. War, both when you’re a soldier and a victim, can leave deep scars. The same can be done by displacement, something that millions of people do every year from war areas, but also from countries where the political situation makes it impossible to stay. Domestic violence, bullying, natural disasters, traumas and more can all cause mental issues as well. Help is sometimes too far away, too expensive or too much of a taboo for some. Destigmatizing mental health is still something that needs to be accomplished.
