Fahmi urges Malaysians to prioritise mental health in World Mental Health Day post

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 10 — Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil has urged Malaysians to prioritize their mental health during World Mental Health Day. He emphasized that mental health should be given the same importance as physical health, especially when managing work, family, and daily life responsibilities. In a Facebook post, Fahmi encouraged those feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unable to cope alone to seek support from trusted individuals or professionals.

He also reminded the public that taking a break and giving oneself space should not be seen as a sign of weakness or guilt. World Mental Health Day is observed annually on October 10 to raise awareness about the importance of mental health on a global scale.
