Mental Wellness
Mental health topics are taboos in Asia countries including Hong Kong. People who needs mental supports, most of the time do not have a chance to talk about their problems due to reasons such as social image, lack of trustful relationship, confidential nature of personal stress, or simply because the issue experienced is difficult to be understood by any others. As a result, stress encountered often being neglected and suppressed to a point that stress might find its way out through the manifestation of psychological related physical symptoms, maladaptive behaviors (e.g. workaholics), addictions, relating problems, or even mental breakdowns.
Mental health problems do not only affect the patient but also causes huge impact on their family, children, and people who love them.
