May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time when conversations about mental health become more visible and urgent. Mental health affects everyone, yet many still hesitate to talk openly about it. This silence can deepen feelings of isolation and stigma. #MentalHealthMatters
Key Message: "Strong men seek support when they need it. Taking care of your mental health is a sign of strength, not weakness."
Mental Health should be a priority to everyone. @Ukaramental#MentalHealthRun2026
As we move through June, it is important to recognize that men's mental health deserves attention and open discussion. Many men face challenges such as stress, depression, anxiety, financial pressure and family responsibilities, yet they often suffer in silence.
This month, we encourage men to speak up, seek support, and prioritize their mental wellbeing. Strength is not found in suffering in silence, it is found in reaching out. At @Ukaramental, we remain committed to ensuring that no one suffers in Silence👌@MinofHealthUG#MentalkUG26

Mental health is just as important as physical health. It affects how we think, feel, relate to others, and handle the challenges of daily life. Regardless of age, gender, occupation, or background, everyone deserves good mental well-being.
On this Martyrs Day, the community of Kashaka Girls Secondary School joins the nation in honoring the Uganda Martyrs for their faith, courage, & unwavering commitment to their beliefs
May their sacrifice inspire us to uphold integrity, discipline, hard work, and service to other
Together, we raised awareness, encouraged open conversations about mental health, and demonstrated that mental health matters to everyone.

Shang started off his Social Work Internship Placement in Uganda by attending the Mental Health Run organized by @Ukaramental in mbarara. It was a great experience.
Today, I proudly participated in the #MentalHealthRun in Mbarara City. Every step was a reminder of the importance of mental wellness, resilience, and supporting one another. Together, we can break the stigma and promote a healthier, happier society. #MentalHealthRun #9KMCompleted #MentalHealthMatters

"Young people should be given opportunities to learn how to deal with their mental health struggles.
Most of the struggles if not delt with at an early age, they will eventually be problematic at their old age"
