Mental illness awareness is IMPORTANT!!!!😤

I feel like I only writing when I feel emotional😅 I Am outrageous and I just can't not to talk about it anymore!!😢😢

I want to talk about something that many people (at least) in my country refuse to talk or discuss. It is Mental illness.
In some places they don't even believe in mental illness. For example where I lived on as a child.
It was one of the isolated place in deep forest of Sumatra island that I am not gonna mention. Most people there are actually very civilized they have a single prestigious international high school, besides of that that place is very traditional in every ways.

They are very religious people (I am not saying that I am not religious because I do very religious) but they believe that every bad behaviour that done by every person are because devil or demon possessed. So there are zero preventive actions or rehabilitation facility for these mentally sick person.
They only gives a speech in every occasions basically saying "kids don't be bad. Just follow your parents words or you're going to hell" and it's goes on passes from generation to generation.

When I was young I remember seeing this depressed widow that lived by herself and  her children who already grown adults just left their mother depressed and not looking for help. Until the lady was very sick and started to scream and acting crazy. No one aware that what she needs.
No rehab no any treatment, they see their mother as a shame to the family and was being possessed by evil spirit. 

And there also a neighbor that close to my grandma house that is very abusive and angry all the time but the same thing happened to her. She ended up chained to the wall by her family.
I see many of these everywhere that's how bad it was and it is still happening right now in where I come from. Even at school the problematic kids get suspend instead of getting a better counseling about their mental illness. So many refuses to talk about it because they don't want to be judged by others.

Talking about how lack the education about mental illness in my country. From range 1 to 10. I can say it's almost zero.
I am very close to one of that mental illness victim that is my own late- father. He passed away when I was very young age.
I am not saying he was a bad father. He was a wonderful man.
He loves his mother and family but I know that he was somewhere affected by what he witness when he was a child and no one told him that something was wrong with him.
He was very perfectionist almost OCD I would say he was stressed out and left my mother and us for months to get re married to another woman while he actually still married to my mom. So he has two wives.

My mom was just given birth to my baby sister when that happen. Back then I don't understand why he did that but my mom told me once that my father has some kind of mental illness that I am not gonna mention here for some reason.

My point is this thing keep happening until now day. I witness it everyday until now. I still go back once in a while but that place is still the same.
No one would ever do anything when they see a mentally sick person. Their family members, friends, neighbors, their community even their selves.

No one is aware with this issue. they're so isolated and the governments rarely care about place like that. I bet that's not the only place. This problem is everywhere in indonesia.

Mental illness is serious problem. I repeat it's important that the patients know that they are not just a shame to a family that meant to chained to the wall until the day they die. They deserve to get treatment and the people need to open their eyes and see that this is the real problem. We can't just witness this forever and do nothing about it.

I am no expert or anything but I think this is a real concern. We can't be silent about this forever. We need to build the Awareness about mental illness and teach the people, the children that mental health is important and they can talk about it and get treatment instead of hiding it and it blown up when they can't bear it anymore and ended up dying with it.
