What struck me<br \/>\nmost was how quickly the conversation centered only on depression as if it is the only mental<br \/>\nhealth struggle that exists.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, depression is real. It is serious. It deserves attention.<br \/>\nBut mental health is so much broader than that.<br \/>\nWe Have Normalized Words Without Understanding Them.<\/p>\n<p>Somehow, we have become comfortable saying:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cI have OCD\u201d because we like things organized.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0\u201cI have ADHD\u201d because our minds move fast.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0\u201cI\u2019m depressed\u201d because we feel sad.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But being organized does not automatically mean you have OCD. It may simply mean you enjoy<br \/>\nstructure and control.<\/p>\n<p>Having a busy, fast-moving mind does not automatically mean you have ADHD.<br \/>\nThese are serious clinical conditions. They affect daily functioning, relationships, and quality of life. They are not personality traits.<\/p>\n<p>When we casually throw these terms around, we unintentionally minimize the lived realities of people who are truly struggling.<br \/>\nMental Health Is a Wide Spectrum.<br \/>\nMental health is not just depression, OCD, or ADHD.<\/p>\n<p>It includes conditions such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>ADHD<\/li>\n<li>Autism<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Schizophrenia<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Bipolar Disorder<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Depression<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Anxiety Disorders<\/li>\n<li>OCD<\/li>\n<li>PTSD (Trauma Disorders)<\/li>\n<li>Dissociative Disorders<\/li>\n<li>Eating Disorders<\/li>\n<li>Sleep Disorders<\/li>\n<li>Addiction (Substance Abuse)<\/li>\n<li>Personality Disorders<\/li>\n<li>Dementia<\/li>\n<li>And more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These conditions exist across all types of people: children, adults, men, women, students,<br \/>\nprofessionals.<\/p>\n<p>Mental health is not a \u201ctype\u201d of person. It is a human reality.<br \/>\nRwanda\u2019s History and Our Mental Health<br \/>\nAs a country, we also need to acknowledge something deeper.<br \/>\nOur collective history has affected our mental health more than we often admit.<\/p>\n<p>Among 1,271 genocide survivors interviewed in a study:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>53.3% of women and 48.8% of men had at least one mental disorder.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0The most prevalent were major depressive episodes (35.0%), PTSD (27.9%), and panic<br \/>\ndisorder (26.8%).<\/li>\n<li>\u00a076.2% were aware of mental health services.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Only 14.1% had actually used them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>That gap speaks volumes.<br \/>\nAwareness is not enough. Access and action matter.<br \/>\nOur Children Deserve Better.<\/p>\n<p>In many homes and schools, when a child struggles, we quickly say:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cHe\u2019s not working hard.\u201d* \u201cShe\u2019s just difficult.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cHe\u2019s not social.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cShe\u2019s stubborn.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But what if the child is overwhelmed?<br \/>\nWhat if they are neurodivergent?<br \/>\nWhat if they are struggling silently?<\/p>\n<p>As Rwandans, we need to normalize testing not as a label, but as understanding.<br \/>\nGetting a child assessed does not mean something is \u201cwrong.\u201d<br \/>\nIt means we are trying to understand how their mind works so we can support them better.<br \/>\nParents, please do not give up on your children.<\/p>\n<p>Schools and institutions must also step up:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Provide easier access to assessments.<\/li>\n<li>Offer counseling services.<\/li>\n<li>Train teachers to recognize signs early.<\/li>\n<li>Create supportive environments instead of punishment-driven ones.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Let\u2019s Learn to Meet People Where They Are.<br \/>\nWe often expect people with mental health conditions to adjust to society.<br \/>\nBut what if we also adjusted?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Be patient.<\/li>\n<li>Be informed.<\/li>\n<li>Be cautious with our words.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Support families who are navigating these realities.<\/li>\n<li>Create safe spaces for conversation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are facilities. There are professionals. There are support systems. We just need to use<br \/>\nthem and make them more accessible.You Are Not \u201cCrazy.\u201d You Might Be Tired.<\/p>\n<p>If you are struggling, hear this clearly:<\/p>\n<p>You are not crazy.<br \/>\nYour mind may simply be overwhelmed.<br \/>\nYour nervous system may be tired.<br \/>\nYour past may be unresolved.<br \/>\nTherapy is not weakness.<br \/>\nCounseling is not shameful.<br \/>\nTesting is not failure.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone needs someone to talk to about their inner world.<br \/>\nMental health is not a trend. It is not a personality aesthetic. It is a serious, layered, deeply<br \/>\nhuman topic.<\/p>\n<p>And as a country as communities we need to treat it that way.<br \/>\nLet\u2019s move beyond labels.<br \/>\nLet\u2019s move beyond jokes.<br \/>\nLet\u2019s move toward understanding.<br \/>\nBecause mental health is not just about surviving.<\/p>\n<p>It is about living well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few days ago, I attended a meeting where mental health was brought up.
