On May 25th, the topic "525" has surged to the top of the trending list on Weibo.
According to reports from various domestic media outlets, May 25th is Mental Health Day, with the homophonic meaning of "5·25" being "I love myself".
The essence of this holiday is: caring for oneself, understanding oneself, accepting oneself, paying attention to one's mental health and spiritual growth, improving one's psychological quality, and then loving others and society.
Psychologists suggest that loving oneself is a skill that involves not only caring for one's physical health but also nurturing one's mental well-being.
Mental health is a state of well-being in which individuals exhibit rational cognition, emotional stability, appropriate behavior, harmonious relationships, and adaptability to change during their growth and development. Similar to physical health, mental health is a crucial component of overall well-being.
Furthermore, mental health is demonstrated through self-harmony, social harmony, and societal psychological harmony. Loving oneself entails accepting one's true self, objectively and comprehensively understanding oneself, learning to embrace one's imperfections, embracing one's entirety, fostering a growth mindset, and acknowledging that making mistakes is an essential part of growth.
