JAKARTA - Ringgo Agus Rahman feels that mental health issues have actually existed for a long time and cannot be underestimated. In line with Ringgo, Nirina Zubir also felt the same way.

"When we talk about the issue of mental health, which is now being discussed everywhere, we can't suppress it. It's been there for a long time," said Ringgo, quoted from ANTARA, Monday, September 26.

"Sometimes when you talk about issues that exist outside, the previous generation often says that there are a lot of people today. Actually, it's not just now. There's also a lot of them," he added.

Furthermore, Ringgo also said that he had been bullied before. However, now there are many references that the public can learn so that they can anticipate more about mental health.

"Talking to bully, I was also bullied. It's just that the term is now more for us to study and we can anticipate it," said Ringgo.

On the other hand, Nirina Zubir also expressed her opinion regarding mental health issues. According to him, there are now many sources who can bring in an "attack" that can disrupt mental health. For example, the presence of social media.

"I think now there is more room or direction for an "attack". In the past, it was only in the circle. Now it's at home, friendship, social media too. The information is broad," explained Nirina.

In addition, Ringgo also admitted that he objected that today's generation is said to be a generation with a soft mentality. According to him, every generation cannot be compared to who is stronger.

"It can't be compared to who is stronger mentally. The current generation is said to be soft (mental). That's not the case. The previous generation also without us knowing it wasn't strong or what. In fact, there are many traumatic things too," said Ringgo.

"That's right. But it's not exposed and it hasn't been lifted because social media isn't as important as it is now. It's not good. It's good to get fast information but it's not good sometimes it's not measured by age that I shouldn't know yet, so I know," said Nirina.

Ringgo is also now grateful that many aid institutions have been able to embrace people who have mental health problems. Finally, Nirina also advised that people do not need to feel alone and want to ask for help if they feel they have mental health problems.

"Right now, there are a lot of assistance institutions. They mean those who are really professional, such as doctors or people who have special certification to help people in need," said Ringgo.

"Never be afraid to ask for help. If we have problems or all kinds of things, never be afraid and never hesitate. Never feel that you are the one experiencing this yourself. So back again, it's important to chat with your family," concluded Nirina.
