The latest Bigg Boss 15 season has been surrounded by controversy and clashes between contestants and in one of the upcoming episodes, the Afsana Khan contestants can be seen using a knife after he loses tranquility over the behavior of other contestants towards him.
In a promo released on social media, Afsana, who is a popular singer can be seen trying to endanger himself, using a knife after he felt betrayed by his friends because he did not give him a VIP ticket.
Although there are several reports that show that the singer has been booted from home, the incident also divides the netizen online.
While some people on social media quickly survive and sympathize with the health state of Afsana, what was somewhat despicable was the way in which the incident turned into a joke, commented on inappropriately, and the number of netizens who only ended Afsana to be angry ‘.
This incident also creates more distribution among BB15 online fandom.
Why Afsana Self Damage Incident Requires Inappropriate Comments
Dialogue around mental health and self-care has widened in India, but there are also large gaps that exist between languages, vocabulary, and actual care that we offer to people who suffer from weakening mental health.
For example, it is very common to call someone through mental health problems or engage in strange behavior as ‘crazy’, ‘pagal’, or cooking conditions in their heads, who are not only problematic, but also make the actual light of the patient override.
There are several reports that enter the BB15 contestants (maybe now out of the event) Mental Health Problems Afsana Khan.
While health problems have not been fully discussed in the open, there are many trivialization and stigmatization that has been going on online, which is worrying.
In a country where mental health continues to be a taboo topic, and there are far more people who don’t get help, or aware of the conditions they experience, make ridicule from mental health problems, overthrow jokes, or not right using words like, ‘ psycho ‘,’ crazy ‘is far more dangerous than goodness.
More than that, sensitization is also needed, especially when we have experienced those terrible times, and there is no way to know what someone really does.
Far from stigmatization and careless words, what we really need is a lesson in sensitivity and empathy.
Former Bigg boss and television actress contestants, Rashmi Desai was too deviant at the same thing and asked BB fans not to make heartless comments against Afsana, and become sensitive.
Mental health vocabulary: Why do we need to pay attention
From the report to the actual sentence we are talking about, the words we use to talk about mental health are very important.
Not only can it help someone through such trials, but also help urgently and raise awareness about ways of mental health problems can lead the life we ​​lead.
With more than 14% of Indians who suffer from various forms of mental health problems, we must use the right approach to talk about these things, and increase the importance of mental health, care, and care.
It is also important that we treat mental health as a disease that only affects one aspect of a person’s life, and does not really define their personality.
Just as we sweep people who suffer a cold or heart, we must use the same terminology when we talk about the mental health of someone who deteriorates.
For example, instead of calling someone to be psychotic or bipolar because he acts, it will be sensitive and wiser to overcome this condition …
he will go through or have bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia.
By using words like ‘psycho’, ‘crazy’, ‘addicts’, ‘crazy’ can insult, and maybe even encourage someone to fight negative thoughts, or even take extreme steps.
In the same way, while we talk about someone who takes their own lives or suicide, it is that we do not sacrifice people using words such as ‘suicide’ but otherwise say, ‘die of suicide’.
Using attentive words will also offer some support to someone’s family, and caregivers.
So next time you find an instance like this, or feel angry about someone who acts is not right, don’t rush and call someone ‘crazy’.
Introspect, realized himself, and distributed sympathetic response to end the demon cycle.
