REASONS WHY MOST MILLENNIALS ARE MENTALLY UNHEALTHY.

BRIGHT ANDERSON 
( Global Public Speaker)


Mental Health is the wholeness of oneself in a perfect shape. It includes our emotional, psychological and social well-being.
It affects all ramifications of our lives as humans.

Mental health issues spring forth when there is an Imbalance well-being between our psychological state and physiological welfare.

The global statistics on mental health disorder, according to Saloni Danttani, Hannah Ritchie, and Max Roser in 2017 shows that 10.7% of the global population have mental problems. 
The 10.7% amounts to 792 million people. Out of this number of people, 9.3% are males and 11.9% are females.
This makes mental health disorder a serious issue the world is bedevilled with.

My team and I researched into the root causes of this problem and here are what we found to be the causes:

	1.	The structural chaos of the modern society.
	2.	Toxic Parenting.
	3.	The adverse effects of social media on millennials.
	4.	Lack of purpose.
	5.	The pursuit of comfortability and materialism. 

As a result of mental health disorder:
	1.	Suicide rate has increased.
	2.	People fail to achieve their full potential.
	3.	Millennials fail to make meaningful contributions to their communities.
	4.	Millennials are unproductive at work.

However, in attempt to reverse this very problem:
	•	There should be a constructive restructuring of the modern society.
	•	We have to help millennials discover their purpose and pursue them.
	•	Social media platforms should be reviewed and regulated by the appropriate state authorities and owners of the platforms.
	•	Parents have to inculcate good values, high self esteem and confidence in their children.
	•	Millennials should be motivated and inspired to take on responsibilities.

My research findings seek to help eradicate issues of mental health disorder on individuals and the society as a whole.

This is our collective responsibility. We all have to play a vital role to ensure that this problem is being solved gradually to bring happiness and joy into the lives of people and families, to ensure peace and rapid development of our various societies, and create generational wealth and a better world for the posterity.
                 Thank you.
