A veces se nos olvida cuidar el buen estar de nuestro cuerpo y hasta mas la mente. Durante tiempos dif\u00edciles el cuidado de nuestro cuerpo completo es dif\u00edcil. Nuestros cuerpos aguantan mucho mal trato, pero igual lo aguarda. Nuestros traumas se pasan de generaci\u00f3n a generaci\u00f3n. Nuestros hijos sufren lo que nosotros sufrimos. Mi abuelito fue abandonado de ni\u00f1o, y el maltrato a mi papa, y al final el me maltrato a mi. Si uno no enfrenta sus \u201cdemonios\u201d nos siguen en todo aspecto de la vida. El abandono, abuso, violencia, y maltrato afecta todo el cuerpo y espacialmente la mente. Eventos fuertes nos afecta la mente y pueden causar depresi\u00f3n, ansiedad, trastorno de estr\u00e9s postraum\u00e1tico, el abuso de alcohol y drogas y hasta pensamientos del suicidio.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Como una comunidad Latina\/x\/e necesitamos buscar maneras de enfrentar el sufrimiento que causan estos eventos de trauma. El pedir ayuda es muy dif\u00edcil pero si no lo hacemos nos puede costar la vida. La salud mental y el suicido es algo que nuestra comunidad no habla o acepta pero es una realidad que tenemos que enfrentar y con mucho trabajo podemos sanar juntos.\u00a0 Lo bello de nuestra comunidad es que somos resistentes y buscamos maneras para vivir bien en este pa\u00eds, asi como el dicho: \u201cNos quisieron enterrar, pero no sab\u00edan que \u00e9ramos semillas.\u201d Este mes es dedicado al conocimiento de la salud mental, y es el tiempo mas ideal para empezar hablar sobre este tema. Si usted o alguien necesita ayuda o tiene preguntas sobre la salud mental, llame al 503-575-3764.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n ~ Yoli Flores, Gerente de Programas Comunitarios<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sometimes we forget to take care of the wellbeing of our body and even more of our mind. During difficult times taking care of our whole body is difficult. Our bodies take a lot of abuse, and it holds on to it. Our traumas are passed from generation to generation. Our children suffer what we suffer. My grandfather was abandoned as a child, and he mistreated my father, and in the end, he mistreated me. If one does not face their “demons” they follow us in every aspect of life. Abandonment, abuse, violence, and mistreatment affect the whole body and especially the mind. Difficult events affect our minds and can cause depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, alcohol and drug abuse, and even thoughts of suicide.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As a Latino\/x\/e community we need to find ways to understand the suffering that these traumatic events cause. Asking for help is very difficult, but if we don’t, it can cost us our lives. Mental health and suicide are something that our community does not talk about or accept but it is a reality that we have to face and with a lot of work we can heal together. The beauty of our community is that we are resilient and seek ways to live well in this country, just like the saying: \u201cThey wanted to bury us, but they didn’t know we were seeds.\u201d This month is dedicated to the knowledge of mental health, and it is the most ideal time to start talking about this topic. If you or someone else needs help or has questions about mental health, call 503-575-3764.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n ~ Yoli Flores, Neighborhood Empowerment Manager<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00bfQu\u00e9 es la Salud Mental?\u00a0 A veces se nos olvida cuidar el buen estar de nuestro cuerpo y hasta mas la mente.
