(Areas) 6. How do you perceive the stigma surrounding mental health issues among your peers and within society?

2024-05-15 02:38:16 UTC

I would say more and more teenagers would face a stress in our daily life as includes the workload that we have right now in the sharing education also primary or secondary school, and some might not be able to overcome the challenges they face and might develop depression.

(Personal) 2. What motivates you to work towards these goals?

2024-05-15 02:43:50 UTC

It will be my grades and then I also find an opportunity to see if I have the chance to like go teach or maybe to have tuition session with different preschool kids.

(Areas) 8. Do you think schools are doing enough to educate and raise awareness on mental health issues?

2024-05-15 02:44:29 UTC

No. If school had done better in this part there would not be students facing depression in their life and then trying to self-harm themselves.

(Areas) 9. In your experience, what are the main reasons why some young people may hesitate or feel reluctant to talk about their mental health struggles with others?

2024-05-15 02:44:57 UTC

being judge as many people worried than opening out about their struggles may lead to negative perception or discrimination for their peers or family members in general.

(Areas) 4. Do you feel pressure from family, peers, or society to achieve certain goals?

2024-05-15 02:45:59 UTC

I feel that the pressure that I am giving myself is already too much and then sometimes when I could not hit a certain target that I want I will feel very disheartened.

(Areas) 5. What strategies do you use to maintain resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity? (difficulty)

2024-05-15 02:47:01 UTC

For me, I would say constantly stay motivated or maybe like I have something to look forward to every time and also to find some motivations that I really want to and what I want to see in the future.

(Areas) 1. Do you feel comfortable discussing mental health issues with friends, family, or professionals?

chiaying1013abc — 2024-05-15 02:47:09 UTC

Of course, I felt comfortable to discuss with my friends but then I would not go to this stage where discussing with my family or other professionals.

(Areas) 3. What resources or support systems do you rely on to maintain your mental well-being

2024-05-15 03:06:51 UTC

I maintain my mental well-being by watching stress relieving, funny video and also listening to some music on Youtube.

(Areas) Do you feel pressure from family, peers, or society to achieve certain goals

2024-05-15 03:09:47 UTC

No I don't, as my family is supportive of what I enjoy doing

(Areas) 8. Do you think schools are doing enough to educate and raise awareness on mental health issue

2024-05-15 03:18:02 UTC

I am not sure as despite that schools sometimes have assembly with all the students or during certain period of lesson to talk about mental health awareness and if any student is suffering from mental health issue, they can seek consultation from the teacher, yet there are still student who still suffer from mental health

(Areas) 7. What barriers, if any, have you encountered when trying to access mental health support services?

2024-05-15 03:20:00 UTC

Though not a first-hand experience, I think there are some barriers when accessing health support services such as being ridiculed and looked down by others, discouraging people from receiving the proper help they needed

Each pattern/ common trends labeled and grouped by number and different color.

(Personal) 2. What motivates you to work towards these goals?

2024-05-22 02:51:29 UTC

I would say myself and my mom. Even though it seems like she hasn’t done much, I always feel that she has been there for me emotionally even though she never says it. And for myself this was what I wanted since young and knew very clearly. To even think about letting go of this goals is not an option.

Pattern/Common Trend (1)

2024-05-22 02:56:09 UTC

interviewees generally find it okay sharing about their feelings with friends but struggle when it comes to family.

(Areas) 1. Do you feel comfortable discussing mental health issues with friends, family, or professionals?

2024-05-22 03:03:10 UTC

For friends, yes, because they need to know what I experience to not only connect with me but also to learn from what I go through.

(Areas) 3. What resources or support systems do you rely on to maintain your mental well-being?

2024-05-22 04:08:14 UTC

Whenever I’m feeling down I would talk to god. I also have my friends and sometimes my sister. I talk to my friends because I know I am not the only one thinking the same way sometimes. I feel some people need me to open up for them to do the same, so I feel that I can provide them that help.

(Areas) 4. Do you feel pressure from family, peers, or society to achieve certain goals?

2024-05-22 04:08:40 UTC

Not really. I am mainly doing things for myself. Every now and then I do feel some pressure but it is not something I dwell on.

(Areas) 5. What strategies do you use to maintain resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity? (difficulty)

2024-05-22 04:09:54 UTC

I just push through but it was quite miserable. But I kept telling myself to just do it and what matters is just showing up everyday. I always tell myself that it wont last forever and that you are never to far from getting back to your feet. I also think life is way more than feeling pity for myself and its not worth it to constantly tell myself why I am bad at things. My main strategies are on the mental side and self-talk. I feel that the mental side will transfer over physically to overcome barriers.

(Areas) 6. How do you perceive the stigma surrounding mental health issues among your peers and within society?

2024-05-22 04:10:16 UTC

I disagree with the perception that sharing feelings is being weak but I get where they are coming from. To the individuals sharing they shouldn’t think that they are weak. I think its more of being afraid to open up because its too personal then the stigma for me.

(Areas) 7. What barriers, if any, have you encountered when trying to access mental health support services?

2024-05-22 04:10:35 UTC

Last time I was quite sceptical about therapy because I thought that my situation was unsavable and that the therapist wouldn’t get it. That was until I met the counsellor in secondary school and it helped me think otherwise. So I would say it wouldn’t hurt to try.

(Areas) 8. Do you think schools are doing enough to educate and raise awareness on mental health issues?

2024-05-22 04:10:58 UTC

I feel it is not enough. Mental health is not emphasized enough. Even though there are activities and events for it, it doesn’t connect with the individuals and how they feel. I think things that can be improved is maybe having a more positive environment and being more optimistic. But also schools also have a lot on their plate and doing these may take a lot of effort.

(Areas) 9. In your experience, what are the main reasons why some young people may hesitate or feel reluctant to talk about their mental health struggles with others?

2024-05-22 04:11:20 UTC

When people open up and others just tell them to not be sad. Like when you open up to your parents and they will say stuff that makes you wonder why you even told them your issues in the first place. I think it would be good if parents are thought on how to not be judgemental or learn how to react in situations like that. People also don’t have friends that can understand their feelings and be comfortable enough to share with.

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 04:54:55 UTC

I found It quite difficult to discuss mental health issues with family and friends , as they wouldn’t really understand and  I had the fear of being judged by them. I mostly kept all of those thoughts and feelings to myself.  

(Personal) 2. What motivates you to work towards these goals?   (Fazila)

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 04:56:16 UTC

The only motivation I have is myself. I have this very big desire of being successful in life, in everything that I put my heart and mind on. And I feel by me following through with these goals is not only going to benefit me now currently but also my future self. Being self-reliant is very important to me. And these goals are some things that can help me achieve that. 

(Areas) 3. What resources or support systems do you rely on to maintain your mental well-being? (Fazila)

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 04:57:29 UTC

Currently I am seeing a school counsellor here and there when I have the time. It has helped me to discuss a lot of pent up issues that I was going through emotionally. It felt a little uncomfortable at first , but with time I managed to be a bit more open with discussing difficult topics and emotions which helped me destress a little and gain some clarity over my life. 

(Areas) 4. Do you feel pressure from family, peers, or society to achieve certain goals?  (Fazila)

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 04:58:38 UTC

Yes, sometimes I feel a bit pressures from my family to achieve certain goals, which sometimes can be quite overwhelming and stressful.  
 

(Areas) 6. How do you perceive the stigma surrounding mental health issues among your peers and within society? (Fazila)

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 04:59:57 UTC

Currently with the rising suicide rates among youth, I feel that many teenagers and young adults are facing difficulty in reaching out and asking for help when they are facing mental health issues. I feel people are easily labelled for being mentally unstable and judged when they try to ask family and friends for help. And because of the general unawareness on the serious negative impacts that mental health issues can cause, a lot of people just brush it off and think that it is not something to give much importance to. Not only that, I feel especially the older generation are quite judgemental when they see someone going through mental health issues , and instead of providing help, they can cause them to feel worse.

(Areas) 6. How do u perceive the stigma surrounding mental health issues among your peers and within society) [Lixiang]

2024-05-22 05:30:29 UTC

Right now, the stigma for mental health isn’t that big anymore since right now everyone is more open-minded and would understand if someone is going through a hard mental episode. Some stereotypes such as mental illnesses are a disease that should be dispersed, and people shouldn’t treat those with mental health like an outcast and should help them to get the treatment they needed.

(Areas) 7. What barriers if any have u encountered when trying to access mental health support services) [Lixiang]

2024-05-22 05:31:25 UTC

(Areas) 8. Do u think sch is doing enough to educate and raise awareness on mental health issues) [Lixiang]

2024-05-22 05:32:43 UTC

I believe schools are doing their best to help with mental health by hosting talks and offering counselling sessions. However, bringing out someone who has first-hand experience of these sensitive issues would be better.

(Areas) 9. In your experience what are the main reasons why some youths may hesitate to talk about their mental health struggles with others) [Lixiang]

2024-05-22 05:34:37 UTC

Boys often don’t want to open to revealing their own personal issues as they don’t want to trouble others with it. Some stereotypes such as mental illnesses are a disease that should be dispersed, and people shouldn’t treat those with mental health like an outcast and should help them to get the treatment they needed.

(Areas) 5. What strategies do you use to maintain resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity? (Fazila)

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 05:46:55 UTC

Usually when i am faced with hardships i try to look at the positive side of my life if possible. Try to tell myself that i will get through it. If i feel like it is really affecting me emotionally i would try to talk to someone that i trust about it, or just try to do something that can help me to destress like working out , or even just taking a walk.

(Areas) 7. What barriers, if any, have you encountered when trying to access mental health support services. (Fazila)

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 05:48:08 UTC

I think i would say the waiting period to get a suitable date that fits my schedule when seeking help from counsellors.

(Areas) 8. Do you think schools are doing enough to educate and raise awareness on mental health issues? (Fazila)

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 05:49:15 UTC

Currently i feel schools are not really doing to raise awareness on mental health. Currently me being a student myself, i felt over the years from the transitions of different schools ive been in, schools have not really given much importance on the issues related to mental health. They are not very encouraging to students to actually seek help and the effort put into raising awareness amongst the students is very minimal to almost no effort.

(Areas) 9. In your experience, what are the main reasons why some young people may hesitate or feel reluctant to talk about their mental health struggles with others?   (Fazila)

nurfazila299 — 2024-05-22 05:51:15 UTC

In my own personal opinion I feel young people just feel afraid that they would be judged or labelled as “Crazy” or “Mentally unstable” or even just “Seeking attention”. Due to this fears and stereotypes that is within our current society is what I feel would cause young people to not want to talk about their mental health. Also the older generation are not as aware of mental health issues and instead of providing help to these young people , I feel they might do the exact opposite by giving negative remarks and comments to what these young people are going through. I feel there is a strong judgement within the older generation with talking about mental health issues which can further cause young people not to reach out.  

(Areas) 1. Do you feel comfortable discussing mental health issues with friends, family, or professionals?

2024-05-22 05:52:50 UTC

Yes, as there has been many programs and talks that is hosted by the school to spread the awareness on mental health issues and how individual can help themself in overcoming mental health

(Areas) 9. In your experience, what are the main reasons why some young people may hesitate or feel reluctant to talk about their mental health struggles with others?

health starts from parents to children. Most parents do not want to believe their child needs help and tend to avoid it.
