(Let’s Erase Sadness and Insecurities)

SCOPH CIMSA UIN SH

World Mental Health Day is celebrated every October 10th. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the risk of mental health problems such as depression and insecurities are higher than before. Working and learning from home could be a stressor for people. According to several surveys, the highest depression rate is in young adult age.

In order to celebrate World Mental Health Day, this year, SCOPH CIMSA FK UIN created a community development called LESI (Let’s Erase Sadness and Insecurities). This community development is created to raise awareness about mental health in FK UIN SH students and how to cope with it.

The first intervention was held on 10th and 11th October 2020 which consist of webinar and online consultation. For the first intervention, we were collaborated with KESSOS DEMA FK UIN SH. Before the main event, the primary assessment was distributed to FK UIN SH pre-clinical students in the form of SRQ Test. The purpose of this test is to detect students that are indicated with mental health issue and asking them to be the part of the target community. The target community gets a chance to consult to a psychologist via online.

On 10th October, the webinar was held via Zoom Meeting as an online platform and it was open for all of the FK UIN SH students. The event started at 14.00. There was 3 speakers with different topics. The first one was Annisa Mega Ridyani, S.Psi from Into The Light Indonesia with the topic ‘Mental Health in Adolescence’ that was relevant for the participants as medical students that were mostly going through puberty.

The second topic was “Mental Health in Pandemic Situation” from Rangkoel Mental Health Care. The participants were enthusiastic about these 2 topics and asked many questions during the QnA session. We also held games and the participants were very active and excited. The last topic was slightly heavier, which was ‘Depression’ brought by dr. Adhi Wibowo Nurhidayat, Sp. KJ(K), MPH. The event ended around 17.00 successfully.

On 11th October, the online consultation was held via Zoom Meeting. There were 23 target communities who joined the consultation. The consultation was done by 6 psychologists. Each person got 60 minutes with the psychologist.

This intervention got positive feedbacks from the participants. We sincerely hope LESI could increase people’s knowledge and awareness about mental health. In addition, we also hope this community development could reduce their depression level.
