Dr. Iman Yahya, the clinical psychological consultant, said that mental health must be taken care of just like physical health, and that mental health is a right guaranteed to everyone, as a person enjoys balanced mental health, and this helps him maintain good physical health and normal psychological balance, adding that a person suffering from any psychological illness does not deprive him of it. It is his human right required of him in any field.
Yahya added during her interview with the “Chat” program that it is important to pay attention to the mental health of the elderly, raise health awareness of the mental health issues that adults in society suffer from, and highlight the problem of depression as the most important problem that some elderly people suffer from, in addition to the mental illnesses that are widespread in the world globally.
The psychological consultant added that the number of elderly people currently in the world who are over 70 years of age is more than 800 million elderly people, and it is expected that the number will increase by more than two billion elderly people in the year 2050, adding that people over 60 years old are expected to enjoy an increase in life. Regarding the above, she concluded her speech by saying that the elderly suffer from health problems. Many of them lose the ability to move and concentrate, or their movement becomes limited, and some depend on others to meet their needs. Some also suffer from physical, mental, and psychological problems that require long-term medical care.
