#MentalHealth is still an afterthought in many countries. Marginalized groups often face the greatest barriers to care, including stigma and discrimination. World Health Organization (WHO) is supporting countries to make mental health services more accessible and effective, by integrating them into primary health care. Obrigado, Minister Filomena Mendes Gonçalyes,... for your commitment to promoting and protecting mental health, in #CaboVerde and around the world.show more

@WHO The first person who needs mental health support is you

@WHO mental health issues can be alleviated with your immediate resignation

@WHO QUIENES MERECEN SER DISCRIMINADOS EN ESTA AREA ES LA PSIQUIATRIA, YA QUE NO ALIVIAN A NADIE Y SOLO TORTURAN A SUS VICTIMAS CON PASTILLAS QUE SON UN VERDADERO FRAUDE FABRICADAS POR LABORATORIOS FARMACEUTICOS QUE SE BENEFICIAN DE ESTE FRAUDE ""...""

@WHO Absolutely crucial work, @DrTedros. Mental health must be a global priority. Your efforts with @WHO are truly making a difference. Thank you for advocating for marginalized communities.

@WHO How many people did you harm and kill with your Covid vaccines?! - Covid demonstrated Tedros and WHO cannot be trusted - he is a clown not a politician more interested his own ego and promoting his own political agenda and interests - Tedros not a medical doctor - USELESS MUNT!

@WHO Lockdowns were just amazing for peoples mental health

@WHO No moral personal seeks to sell drugs to normalise abuse, you stop the abuser. It’s their mental health and the mental health of the men failing to act to stop the abuse.

Mental health services should be as effective as physical health services. As someone who has been directly affected, I can attest to this. In the age we live in, we’re all connected to the internet, and we may not fully realize how much it affects us. Thank you for providing supportive services. 🙏

@WHO Speaking of marginalized groups and mental health, what is the WHO doing to stop the murder and persecution of albinos in Africa?

Afghanistan now more than ever is challenged when it comes to offering/receiving mental health services, as women who worked in mental health are no longer allowed to work in a time when more women are suffering mentally/emotionally due to servere gender discrimination; moreover, mental health issues there for future generations are worrisome because there is no data whether iodine deficiency campaigns are still active and whether iodized salt is readily available to pregnant women/children of school age, now that girls, who will one day carry the next generation of children, are not allowed to go to school. My concern now is greater than a few years ago when I initially wrote an academic paper beard upon ongoing research pertaining to iodine deficiency, a preventative deficiency that is inexpensive in order to solve, but in case of deficiency may result in irreversible brain damage… It will be challenging to convince Taliban that there has to be continued campaigning as there are in Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, etc.
