World Mental Health Day - October 10

Mental health is the condition of the absence of mental illness. October 10 is observed as world mental health day by World Health Organization (WHO). 

It was first observed in 1992. Suicide prevention is the main aim of WHO on this mental health day. In this modern world, the importance of mental health is to be deeply discussed. Our mind must be in our own control. Do not allow any of our thoughts to rule our mind. Lack of mental power and confidence are the main problems which today's world is facing. Suicidal tendency of teenagers as well as of mature people is a rising issue. According to WHO," if we don't act urgently, by 2030, depression will be the leading illnesses globally". Keeping these words in mind, we should train our minds with good thoughts and vision for better health.
