Okay, good day everyone. My name is

Faran Alia and I will be the moderator

for today's forum. So now let's look at

my look at our panel.

Please introduce yourself. My name is

Fasa.

>> My name is Mina Razil Salun. So today we

are going to discuss about mental

health, wellbeing and human

sustainability in today's fastpace and

digital world. Many people experience

stress, pressure and also emotional

challenges without realizing how serious

it can be. Mental health is not only a

personal issue but also an an important

in shaping

a healthy and sustainable society.

Uh to start our discussion I would like

to ask what does mental health and

wellbeing mean to you and why is it

important in today's society?

>> H thank you. Um to mental health and

wellbeing is about emotional and

psychological balance.

Mental health means being able to manage

emotions, stress and challenges in a

healthy way. A person with good mental

health a person with good mental

well-being can think clearly, make

decision and cap with daily pressure.

For example, a student who manage stress

well can handle exam without feeling

overwhelmed or emotional exhaustion.

Other than that, emotional other than

that

mental health and wellbeing is also

about foundation for a productive

society.

Mental well-being is important because

it affects how people function in

society.

When individuals are mentally healthy,

they can work effectively, communicate

better and build healthy relationship.

For instance, employees with good mental

health are more focused and motivated

which leads to be better performance at

work.

What about you? Um for me I think mental

health is the holistic accurum

which is to mental health is the state

of psychological balance when we we an

individual navigate the heights and lows

of the life without breathing. It is

about resonance which is the ability to

function effectively even when things

get difficult. For instance, a person

with good wellbeing might still feel

stressed by a heavy workload, but they

posess the tools to manage that stress

rather than being um maybe difficult

with it. Uh next is the foundation of so

society productivity which is in our

fastpace society mental health is the

silent driver of our community which is

when people are mentally well they are

more creative and empathetic. For

example, we see in the corporate world a

a workforce that prioritize mental

health experiences significantly

lower burnout rates compared to one that

ignores it. I think that is the mental

formula.

Thank you for the responses. I agree

that mental health is about emotional

balance and coping with daily

challenges. good mental well-being

individuals live a healthy life and

their life will become more meaningful.

So now let's moving to on to our next

question. The question is what are the

main factors that affect mental health

especially among young people today?

>> Thank you. For me the main factor is

academic and performance pressure.

Many young people feel pressure to

achieve to achieve high grades, secure

good jobs and meet expectation from

family and society. This pressure can

cause stress, anxiety and burnout.

For example,

students who constantly worry about

earns and deadlines may experience sleep

problems and emotional ex exhaustion.

Other than that, I think it's influence

of social media. Social media often

shows unrealistic lifestyle and

achievement which can lead to

comparation and low self-esteem among

young people. For instance, seeing

perfect life online may cause

individuals to feel inadequate or

disastified

with their own life.

Yeah, that's all.

So if you ask me about what the main

factors that affect mental health, for

me it is because digital overload and

social compression which is this is the

first generation to live their lives on

display. They constant exposure to the

car perfect lives of other on social

media crits a compression trap that erod

selfism.

For example, a teenager may feel not

good enough simply because the daily

reality doesn't match the filter

vocation that photos of an influencer.

Um other than that I think also economic

and economic pressure which is there is

an intense and relentless

level of pressure to success in a

competitive global market which is their

fear of falling behind leads to chronic

anxiety before their careers have been

started which is uh for example we see

students

regularly

p pulling all nighters

sacrifice sacrificing sleep and social

con connection just to maintain their

grades

those are very relevant factors

personally I think that pressure from

academics financial issues and social

media are among the biggest challenges

for young people today many Some people

feel that they need to constantly

compete or comp compare themselves with

others online. When these pressures are

not managed well, they can slowly affect

a person's emotional and mental

well-being. So now let us look at the

impact.

What happens if mental health problems

are ignored and how does this affect

human sustainability?

I think it's worsening mental and

emotional conditions.

Ignoring mental health issues can cause

the can cause them to become more

serious over time leading to long-term

emotional and psychological problems.

For example, untreated stress can

develop into depression or anxiety

disorders.

My next point is negative impact on

human sustainability.

Uh human sustainability depends on

mentally healthy individuals who can

contribute to society. For mental health

reduce productivity, creativity and

social stability.

For instance, a workace suffering from

burnout cannot sustain long-term

economic and social development.

H I agree with you. I think mental

health is our responsibility which is

when mental health is ignored minor

issue often involve into chronic

conditions which is this lead to be

breakdown in phys physical healthy as

the mind and body are linked.

For example, unmanaged chronic anxiety

can lead to serious physical ailments

like heart disease or a weaken weaken

immune system over time. Other than that

erosion of human sustainability also

um impacts of mental health if you

cannot control it because human

maintaining our collective human

capital. If we ignore mental health we

see a decline in the quality of

parenting and workforce long lively

longively.

For example, high burnout rates in

healthcare mean we are losing essential

workers because their human battery was

never allowed to discharge.

I strongly agree with what has been

mentioned. If mental health is ignored,

individuals may experience burnout,

depression or loss of motivation on a

larger scale. Uh this can lead to lower

productivity and unstable relationship

and uh an and unhealthy society. Without

mentally healthy individuals, it is

difficult to sustain human development

in the long run.

So now for our final question. The
