South Sudan on Monday celebrated Mental Health Day aiming at raising awareness about working hard to maintain healthy mind.
The day provides an opportunity for all stakeholders working on mental health issues to talk about their efforts.
The commemoration of the day means more needs to be done to make mental health care a reality for people worldwide.
Efforts in support focus on basic sensible psychological support by health staff, teachers, firemen, community workers or police officers.
Learning basic principles of psychological first aid will help people to provide support to people who are distressed to know what not to say.
