“When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with bodies of logic, but bodies of emotion”
Working in small, coordinating groups has been the first survival strategy for the humans. Our behaviour varies significantly depending on relationship contexts and the cognitive, emotional, and social mechanisms that have evolved for recognizing, evaluating, and responding to those contexts, who else is present and who else is affected by, or has had an effect on, present circumstances.
This idea follows from the uncontroversial but often never acknowledged fact that most of our activity involves coordinating one’s actions with the actions of others, and that the relative success or failure of such coordination is directly proportional to that of productivity and well-being, whether in families, friendships, organizations, neighbourhoods, or societies.
We’re living in strange times, “asaan bhasha mein” (in easy words), SOCIAL DISTANCING- a heavy strike. Reportedly, there is an 80% increase in mental health issues in India. Whereas, 45% in the USA and 60% in Iran. These issues often hold the power to make us feel helpless even among family and friends. Some other impacts include sleeping problems, unhealthy addictions, increased family and financial stress, lonliness, isolated, feeling misinterpreted in relationships, tension, etc.
Despite this turmoil, we all have hung together and there have been positive outcomes, strengthened relationships with family and friends, and a new drive to start focusing on mental health. Caring about family members and friends, finding some or the cheat code of your life, someone playing piano some cooking some dancing some bartending. Around 40% have found a positive and said- “found their friends and their family members more supportive” and more willing to share with others about their feelings, something they wouldn’t have considered doing before.
To lessen the increase fear and tension that has been created, to lessen the turmoil, the distress, the distortion in all relationships, let it be any your friends, family anyone, to decrease the emotional distancing that we are creating unknowingly, Let’s take this opportunity and increase that positive outcome percentage from 40 to much more, let us be supportive again, bring that funny and cheerful aura in us once again, and make a drive to follow this stride.
