- TED Fellow Tom Osborn wants more young people to have access to the mental health support they need. With the Shamiri Institute, he and his team are training 18- to 22-year-olds to deliver evidence-based mental health care to their peers in Kenya -- which has only two psychiatrists for every million people. Hear how their community-first, youth-oriented model could become a template to help kids across the world lead successful, independent lives.

This is a crucial subject and a global problem. I totally agree that providing hope for young people will help them alot.

@@Flashisgreatfr Sharks are more cruel. They should be stopped!
If the education system is a primary root for the stress it may be more efficient to address that issue, and solve the problem from its root. There's nothing wrong with the suggestion of treating the problem with more doctors, but I think the old adage applies here, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Absolutely, prevention is necessary and so integral. However, if the problem already exists and is getting worse, then the need to address is directly (through interventions like this) are equally as important. For instance, giving food to the hungry won’t solve poverty, but it’s still needed in order for people to live. We can do both!
Mental health is really important. We need experts but it's so expensive for those financially unstable to study to be one and others can not afford to seek a mental expert.
This hits home on so many levels. As a fellow Kenyan, I've seen the impact of mental health struggles firsthand. The work you're doing to train young people as providers and destigmatize mental health care is inspiring! This model needs to be replicated everywhere. 👏
One thing that is not mentioned much with regard to dealing with mental health issues is faith... I see pple try everything under the sun and still not find relief or healing but not faith.
Faith isn't viewed very favorably today due to pple of certain faiths not doing a good job exemplifying their faith.. but it helped me more than everything else I tried for severe mental illness 🙂
I Love that were getting so much more comfortable talking about and taking care of our mental health. It is so extremely important!!

I was just scrolling through different job searches and came across Shamiri Institute. Good job empowering young people. I would wish that adults could have platforms and group meet ups just to break free
Please get rid of the mindless chasing after letter-grades for studying a subject that does not captivate your enthusiasm.
A therapist functions to heal an injury; but the injury ought not to exist, in the first place.

This topic is extremely important, i thought this case is just happened in certain countries, but it turned out to be a crucial subject and a global problem. So i agree that providing hope Is one way to save mental health, especially for young people and help them a lot
Big up Tom👏🏾
This is a reminder that mental health is important at any stage of life.

It's very simple, get them off social media. I'm an older person who spent a few weeks on social media in 2017 at the behest of friend who thought it was a good way to stay in touch and I had to get off it as I've never seen such poison in my entire life, I was bullied as a teen at school 45 years go and it was nothing like this, total strangers just being nasty to you for the sake of it. Horrible.

@@Flashisgreatfr hello kid. Realize why your reply is tone deaf. If you’re not sure what that means then look it up.

no more evictions from primary residences so families are never tempted to put the weight of the world on their children

Sleep deprivation can cause mental problems. What you describe sounds like forced sleep deprivation, aka torture.
Conclusion: school is torture
Living in poverty and in a nation with low life expectancy leads to poor menntal health - obvious really, but in the "developed" world we never talk about this in this context
One is caught up playing the impassioned protagonist in one’s Subjective Narrative of Self🎈

Achilles tendon
How about just telling them the truth !....
Which conspiracy theory are you talking about specifically? I'm curious
I'd be much more comfortable if our doctors and lawyers didn't have to work hard for letter grades. Instead they should be granted professional status based on their desire to help society. Also they should be paid equally, not based on the quality of their work. This would alleviate the stress of the job and result in a healthy equitable utopia for all.
Its beneficial to reward people for the quality of their work. Im sure if you took time to think about that you would realize why. Because there are many many reasons why.
@@TheRealHerbaSchmurba Thanks for your feedback but I don't think with my mind, I think with my feelings. Maybe you should give that a try sometime.
@@ElectricIguana nah. Thats a recipe for disaster. Better to balance both.
3:27 That's a BIG LIE.
Pick bananas u need emotional and professional growth
LEARN TO WORK NOT FIND EXCUSES
If someone has constant depressions due to stress, they shouldn't be forced to work.

Colonial past is the cause of depression in Kenya ????😂😂😂😂
Based on what he said it sounds more like present days societal/cultural pressure on "be successful" and fear of the future "will I be successful" and in terms of Depression talking: "I am a failure" and "I will fail"
Amazingly the video never says that, touches some other sources of depression and stress like the need to be amazing at school to have value (see 50% of students having stress and/or depression) AND what you said still is probably true, colonial past causes some socio-economical anomalies to be integral part of the system that settles down and those probably put a lot of people in positions where they undergo a lot of stress and hopelessness (see actually struggling to survive, something that by the tone of your comment you never had or will have to experience)
Got save from the Arab Man.
Jesus can help with this - He is the Way, the Truth, and Life! Those who believe in Him have His love, joy, and peace even in difficult circumstances.
@@Feroce I disagree, in fact I’d bet a large percentage of the youth struggling with mental illness don’t have faith in god .
Not everyone wants to adopt the concept of the christian Jesus into their lives as pillars for their mental health. Im sure you come from a good place, but in order to help the most people you must speak from a place that everyone can relate to. Not everyone can relate to Christian/biblical teachings. In fact many people disagree with biblical teachings. Of course, there are many messages in the bible that are incredibly wise and that would be beneficial for anyone, so its best to speak from the universally wise principles that the bible advocates fir, rather than telling people to invest into an individual as their lord and savior.

I don't think this is a real TED talk. Too shallow a conversation to be considered help.
