The Silent Scream: Mental Health and Career Decisions
THE landscape of career choice has undergone a seismic shift. Gone are the days when students followed traditional paths without much ado. Today, the pressure to choose a career that aligns with one's strengths, passions, and market demands is overwhelming. The tragic incidents in Kota, Rajasthan, serve as a harsh reminder of the intense competition and stress that students face. The decision to choose a career is often daunting because it involves weighing various factors, such as personal interests, academic qualifications, financial stability, and job market trends in a world that has become more interconnected, leading to increased competition. The emphasis on knowledge, skills, and innovation has created a high-stakes environment where students feel the burden to perform. There is a societal shift. Automation, AI, and shifting industry landscapes have created uncertainty, making students feel the need to be more prepared. The constant updating of curricula, addition of new subjects have increased the workload. Social media platforms have created a culture of comparison, where students feel the need to measure up to their peers. Increased parental involvement and expectations from children have been responsible for excessive mental and psychological tension of children. Even parents themselves become victims of such anxiety. Issue of student suicides in Rajasthan is the direct impact of competitive pressures on students. Hence it becomes indispensable to work towards creating a more balanced, supportive, congenial atmosphere for holistic development of children and to create an environment to flourish in a competitive world.
