There is no shame in taking time to prepare. Work hard, do your best, and move forward at a pace that is healthy and sustainable for you. Independence will come when you are ready for it. No one is racing you. #MentalHealthMatters

The unhealthy rus to leave home Leaving home is often portrayed as a major life milestone a sign of growth, independence, and “making it.” In today’s world, especially for young men, early independence is frequently framed as evidence of responsibility and success.

Families often understand the realities of life better than we assume; they can recognize when things are working and when support is still needed.

it can expose them to risky behaviors and negatively affect their mental health. Starting life independently is a positive and admirable step but only when it is taken from a place of readiness, not pressure. Growth does not follow a universal timeline.

but because they feel compelled to fit a certain image. They may choose to struggle silently like skipping meals, isolating themselves in hostels, or enduring unnecessary hardship simply to avoid being seen at home. While this may look like resilience from the outside,

As a result, many boys begin to feel intense pressure the moment they enter their twenties. This pressure is particularly visible among students. Some avoid returning home during holidays, not because they are ready to live independently,

@UNayebare True I hope we realize that its a big problem and we try to solve it.

@KingArthurAk Families provided anchorage and a shoulder to lean on in hard times and a people to celebrate with when we won. This has been shifting overtime

Was the Traditional Family Setting a Form of Therapy We Lost? The rising prevalence of mental health disorders today can, in many ways, be mapped onto the changing structure of the family. Over time, families have become smaller, more isolated,

but a form of everyday therapy that once existed in our homes and communities. #MentalHealthMatters

we must not lose sight of a fundamental truth: human beings are inherently social. Family—whether biological or chosen—and strong social support systems remain among the most powerful determinants of good mental health. Perhaps what we have lost is not simply tradition,

or low in quality. As a result, many choose isolation—mistaking solitude for peace. Yet isolation, especially when prolonged, is a significant risk factor for depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. As we pursue personal success and individual growth,

its impact was often softened by strong social bonds that functioned—informally but effectively—as therapy. In contrast, the modern generation often prioritizes independence and self-sufficiency, sometimes viewing the people around them as emotionally unavailable, unreliable,

People who experienced sadness, anxiety, or distress were surrounded by extended family members, neighbours, and communal networks that provided belonging, reassurance, and shared responsibility. While mental illness certainly existed,

and increasingly detached from one another. These shifts have quietly removed a crucial protective factor against mental illness: consistent social and emotional support. In traditional family and community settings, individuals rarely faced emotional struggles in isolation.

@rodneyrugyema @Makerere @DOS_Makerere @MakGuild @stfrancis_mak @StAugustineCom Great initiative. I an eagerly looking forward to the event. Inclusivity is a conversation that must be held and listened to.
