One Singaporean shared a method called OKAY technique to help other Singaporeans improve their mental well-being
SINGAPORE: In the wake of a recent survey that showed how big a problem mental health is in the opinion of Singaporeans, one Singaporean content creator shared a practice that can help them improve their mental wellness.
Ipsos found in a survey almost half the Singaporeans identified mental health as the number one health issue in the country. Cancer took the number two spot, while stress took third place. While 46% of Singaporeans put mental health at the top, 38% assigned cancer the second spot, and 35% voted stress at third.
The survey also showed that though 78% of Singaporeans believe that mental health is as important as physical health, only 54% believe that within the Singaporean healthcare system, both are given equal treatment. However, that’s an 11 per cent increase from the number of people who believed both were given equal treatment in 2021.
