I think that there has been a rapidly growing trend in our society to discuss our mental health issues.
- I, for one, I’m extremely glad that we’re finally opening up about the mental difficulties that many of us face on a daily basis.
I spent most of my life hiding my depression and anxiety spells from my peers because they were not acceptable to discuss in public. I’ve always felt like it was unfair that I couldn’t tell people how I really was feeling in order to explain some of my strange actions. For instance, I am extremely socially anxious and I prefer to be alone as much as possible. Sometimes this offends people and I can’t tell them about my mental disorder. Recently, I’ve been very glad that every industry has been making a bigger effort for remote, online interactions. This is true all the way down to my heating, cooling, and ventilation specialists. Obviously, when you call an HVAC repair shop you are going to have a heating and cooling technician arrive at your house. You will have to interact with them as they navigate to your central heating and cooling systems looking for broken parts and inefficiencies. However, it turns out that my local HVAC repair shop has been instituting new ways to schedule your routine HVAC maintenance appointments and emergency repair services. I can get online and request heating and cooling appointments without speaking to a single human on the phone. Besides that, my HVAC technician will perform the heating and cooling services requested without requiring social interactions on the job. Today, I can schedule, pay, and review my HVAC repairs entirely online. And that’s a huge help for my mental and respiratory health.
