Event Details
According to WHO, by 2030, one in six people in the world will be aged 60 years or over. Approximately 14% of adults age 60 and over live with a mental disorder. Singapore will be a super-aged nation in 2026 where 21% or more of the population is above 65 years of age.
As we journey through life, the challenges we face often evolve. For older adults, maintaining mental well-being becomes increasingly important, yet it can also become more complex. Join us for an insightful talk on 8th May where we explore the unique aspects of mental health in the golden years
Dr Leslie will dissect the intricacies of coping with significant life transitions, including retirement and empty nesting. Dive into strategies for managing feelings of loneliness and isolation, common yet often overlooked challenges. We'll tackle head-on the persistent stigma surrounding mental health in older generations, equipping attendees with the tools to challenge misconceptions and seek support without shame. Discover the power of resilience and adaptability in navigating the ups and downs of aging gracefully.
Whether you're an older adult yourself or a caregiver, this talk promises to be an invaluable resource for fostering mental well-being and embracing the golden years with confidence and vitality.
