Why our mental health needs a reset | Amaan Ibrahim | TEDxGEMSNewMillenniumSchool

Amaan Ibrahim, a 22-year-old student at the University of Birmingham in Dubai studying psychology and pursuing a career in the field, gives us his take on 'Why the world needs to end RIGHT NOW.' To provide further context to this bold statement, he sheds light on the concept of shared experiences, emphasizing the elements and emotions that connect us all. As an ardent advocate for mental health, he provides us with a unique perspective into how the mind copes with negative emotions and emphasizes the role of community in addressing them. By challenging the notion that we are isolated within our own ecosystems, he demonstrates how interconnected we truly are, thereby reframing the theme 'Same Planet, Different Worlds' in a new light.
