Having a Mental Health First Aid Kit is Not a Luxury

Introducing 12 simple yet effective tools in my first aid kit for unexpected mental discomfort and triggers

Why We Need a Mental Health First Aid Kit

While many of us might have a first aid kit for our physical health, the concept of mental health first aid kit is not as typical and expected in society. But some organizations are introducing and trying to make them familiar.

Our mental health is as important as our physical health. While we need the support of qualified healthcare professionals for our mental health issues, it is always not possible to find them immediately.

Severe cases require reaching out to the emergency departments. However, sometimes we have triggers that may not qualify for an emergency. Thus, having a mental health first aid kit can be valuable for us, our loved ones, and the people around us.

Recognizing mental health issues sometimes can take longer. Some mental health problems might happen out of nothing. Finding the required healthcare professionals can take long in these unexpected situations.
