What does Social, Emotional, and Mental Health Mean?
Social, Emotional, and Mental Health refers to difficulties in managing emotions, maintaining relationships, and coping with stress and anxiety.
The challenges that come with facing depression, low confidence, and emotional dysregulation can create barriers to learning and understanding. Emotional dysregulation is when someone finds it difficult to manage their emotions in a way that is appropriate for the situation.
Furthermore, when learners do not have the words in their language to communicate what they are feeling, this can make their stress and anxiety worse and make people feel lonely and vulnerable.
Traditional school and work environments may not always provide the emotional support needed to help learners reach their full potential.
Neurodivergent individuals and immigrant communities are more at risk of being diagnosed with mental health challenges as they are trying to fit in and hide their difficulties from their friends, families, and teachers.
