Mental illness

Mental illness, also called mental health disorders, refers to a wide range of mental health conditions, disorders that affect your thinking, perceptions, mood or behaviour. Mental illness can make it difficult for someone to cope with work, relationships and other demands.Many people have mental health concerns from time to time. But a mental health concern becomes a mental illness when ongoing signs and symptoms cause frequent stress and affect your ability to function.The relationship between stress and mental illness is complex, but it is known that stress can worsen an episode of mental illness. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders and addictive behaviors.

Mental disorders contribute to a significant load of morbidity and disability, even though few conditions account for an increasing mortality. As per Global Burden of Disease report, mental disorders accounts for 13% of total DALYs lost for Years Lived with Disability (YLD) with depression being the leading cause.From a cultural perspective, mental disorders are associated with a considerable amount of stigma in Indian society, leading to neglect and marginalisation.As of 2015, on a global level, over 322.48 million people worldwide suffer from some form of depressive disorder and as of 2017, more than 14 percent of the total population in India suffer from variations of mental disorders. The majority of this share includes older adult females in India.Projections show that India will suffer massive economic losses owing to mental health conditions especially caused due to the quarantines and lockdowns introduced in the previous year,causing a large amount of stress,anxiety,depression,etc in a significant part of the population.The worst issue amidst all this being the fact that the Indian society does not think mental illness to be a real issue due to which they ignore individuals with such illness and at the same time these individuals family deny them treatment.The lack of recognition and treatment has pushed us to look for alternatives, one of the most effective one being Aromatherapy.Aromatherapy is a holistic healing treatment that uses natural plant extracts to promote health and well-being. Sometimes it’s called essential oil therapy. Aromatherapy uses aromatic essential oils medicinally to improve the health of the body, mind, and spirit. It enhances both physical and emotional health.Aromatherapy is thought of as both an art and a science.Aromatherapy works through the sense of smell and skin absorption using products such as aromatic spritzers, bathing salts, body oils, creams, or lotions for massage or topical application, etc.The most popular being oils .There are many types of these essential oils sold by different sellers but the one that caught my interest was Panchami Oils.Panchami Oils, situated in bangalore is a 2000 year establishment who deal in lamp oils.These lamp oils come in 4 different fragrances of Real Jasmine,British Rose, Lemon grass and Mystic Sandalwood.Their aim being to increase harmony between the body,spirit and mind.I have personally used these oils and they have given me a soothing and relaxing feeling while reducing the stress and calming me down.I am not the only one, almost everyone using these oils have the same review.Also there are an uncountable number of cases when armotheraphy using Panchami oils has helped with mental illnesses like depression,anxiety,etc.These oil coming from nature make us feel an amazing amount of peace, the king we will experience in between the green beautiful nature, undisturbed due to human interfearance.Since, after I have used Panchami oils, I recommend them to everyone, especially teenagers and adults who go through a lot of stress.The use of these oils is not restricted to people with mental illness or/and stress, anyone who uses it can benefit from them.So I personally recommend all of you to give these Panchami Oils a try and see the magic they do to your lives.There are limited period offers going on on their websites,so hurry up and all of you do check them out!!!
