    Who Do You Turn To When You're Experiencing A Mental Health Problem?

    The bar graph shows that most Mariano Marcos State University students turn to friends (41.33%) or parents (26.20%) when experiencing mental health issues, followed by partners (14.02%) and siblings (9.96%). Only 1.11% seek help from a psychiatrist. Friendship plays a key role in helping with mental health problems through providing support, guidance and preventing isolation. However, friends can also negatively impact mental health if they intentionally hurt you or engage in problematic behaviors that cause stress. Maintaining good friendships is important for mental well-being, but people should also be aware of friends who may drag them down.

    It could be gleaned in the bar graph that 112 of Mariano Marcos State University,
    College of engineering students, or 41.33% of students, look for a companion of a friend
    when they are experiencing mental health issues. 76 students or 26.20% of students confide
    in their parents. 38 students or 14.02% of students turn to their partners. 27 students or 9.96%
    of students go to their siblings. 20 students or 7.38% of students choose other specifically
    they seek the present of God when they are feeling down or they are facing mental health
    issues. And lastly, 3 students or 1.11% of students needs to talk to a professional.

    It is really evident that friends and parents are the one they confide when mental
    health arises. Talking to friends and family about mental health problems can be an
    opportunity to provide information, support, and guidance. College students seek a friend
    when they are facing an overwhelming workload, unfamiliar environment, and other stressor
    can lead to a mental health crisis. In a world that has recently flipped our normal lives upside
    down, not being able to meet in person with each other as much or at all has been so difficult
    for so many. It is vitally important we keep the connections and our friendships going in
    whichever ways work for us. Friendship is an element in protecting our mental health.
    Friendship is a powerful relationship that college students hold onto. Friendships offer so
    much more than just having a good time. We may talk to friends in confidence about things
    we wouldn’t discuss with our families especially to our parents. Friends add enjoyment to our
    lives and provide comfort in times of need. We need to talk to our friends and we want to
    listen when our friends need to talk to us. Our friends can keep us grounded and can help us
    get things in perspective. It is worth putting effort into maintaining our friendships and
    making new friends. The companion of a friend is mostly needed when facing mental health
    issues.
    Friendship can play a key role in helping someone live with or recover from a mental
    health problem and overcome the isolation that often comes with it. Friends also play a
    significant role in promoting your overall health. Adults with strong social support have a
    reduced risk of many significant health problems, including depression, high blood pressure
    and an unhealthy body mass index (BMI). Many people look to friends for support,
    community, and laughter, but when a friend doesn’t pull their weight or does something to
    intentionally hurt you, it can really damage your mental health. Friends is very helpful when we
    are facing difficulty but you should know your circle of friends, they can also the one who drag you
    down. Friendships change and sometimes they fade away or end abruptly. Our friends may
    annoy us, but they can also keep us going. But other evidence increasingly suggests that bad
    friends, or even well-intentioned ones with bad habits, can negatively impact your mental
    health. This causes your mind and body severe stress or leads to problematic patterns.
