How to talk to your child when you're having a bad mental health day
There are days when the weight inside feels heavy, when the smile doesn't come easy, and even small tasks feel like mountains. On such days, being a parent can feel overwhelming. But children still look up with those curious, expecting eyes. They still want bedtime stories, attention, and hugs. What happens when the mind is clouded, but the heart still wants to show up for the little one? Here are some ways to handle such moments. Not with perfection, but with presence. This isn't about hiding pain or pretending to be okay, it's about choosing honesty, warmth, and connection, even when the mind feels far away. Gently naming the feeling without the drama Shielding children from every difficult emotion may teach them that uncomfortable feelings are wrong or dangerous. Instead of pretending all is well, gently naming the feeling in simple words can be powerful. A parent might say, 'Feeling tired in the heart today,' or 'The brain feels a little rainy right now.' These soft phrases don't scare a child, but they open the door to emotional honesty. It teaches children that emotions, just like weather, can change. And just like rain doesn't last forever, neither do bad days. Creating connections in tiny, quiet ways Not all days will allow for quality time, but quiet time together can still be meaningful.

But a simple act like holding a child's hand during a walk or sharing a snack in silence can still create a sense of closeness. Children often feel safest not when big things are said, but when small things feel calm and steady. A parent can gently say, 'Not many words today, but sitting here with love.' That quiet truth can feel more comforting than forced energy. Avoiding the guilt trap, one soft step at a time The guilt of not being emotionally present can be heavier than the mental struggle itself. But guilt only builds walls, it rarely heals. Instead of slipping into guilt, one small effort can help: acknowledging the day without apologising for being human. Maybe something like, 'Today might look slower, but love stays full.' Even a mentally foggy day can offer something real, consistency, even if quiet. Love doesn't always come dressed in energy. Sometimes, it sits in stillness. Using play as a healing bridge Play can sometimes help the healing, even for the adult. Sensory play, like moulding clay, drawing with crayons, or building blocks, can be grounding. Not just for children, but for the parent too. These moments of shared calm can become a bridge back to the self. There's no need for performance. A simple, 'Want to draw a cloud with me?' can invite the child into a world where emotions are welcome, without heavy words. Ending the day with a soft note of hope Children don't need forced happiness. They need felt honesty and emotional safety. At bedtime, a soft sentence can carry so much healing. Something like, 'Today was tough, but tomorrow may feel lighter. Let's rest together now.' This isn't just reassuring for the child, it reminds the parent too, that feelings are just visitors. It teaches that emotions can be talked about, not hidden. That love doesn't disappear with tiredness. And that even on low days, a parent's quiet presence is still a powerful form of care.

A yr on, 310-bed Rims shelter home battles operational challenges
1 2 Ranchi: The shelter home (Vishram Sadan) of the Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (Rims), built to offer affordable accommodation to attendants and relatives of patients, is grappling with operational challenges. The facility was projected to benefit around 90,000 people annually. But only 62 beds on the first floor is on offer against the structure's capacity to accommodate 310 people. The Power Grid Corporation of India began constructing the ground-plus-five floors' structure with a basement on a 5,034sq mt plot in 2019 and handed it over to Rims in July last year. The land acquisition cost Rs 17.82 crore. A total of 217 people availed the facility in January, 184 in February, 261 in March, 244 in April, 218 in May, and 164 till June 18. The public relations officer (PRO) of Rims, Dr Rajeev Kumar, said, "The aim is to ensure dignified and affordable accommodation to the attendants, especially from rural and remote areas. The shelter home is being operated internally by Rims owing to the lack of effective management and delay in onboarding an external agency." Rims had floated a tender for hiring a private agency to manage the facility in January 2025. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo But the attempt failed as as those who applied did not meet the eligibility criteria. The hospital authorities reissued the expression of interest (EOI) last Monday, hoping to find a capable agency to take over operations. "Hospital authortities aim to ensure proper healthcare management. Hence, there is a need for a dedicated agency to run the accommodation properly," said a source. Accommodation is available at a subsidised cost of Rs 100 per day for families presenting an OPD or IPD slip, with payment accepted at any Rims cash counter. An amount of Rs 150 is charged per day from those staying beyond seven days. Dr Rajeev said, "Posters have been put up at multiple points of the hospital to generate awareness about the available accommodation among the patients and their family members." "We came from Simdega for my wife's treatment and had no idea that such a facility existed. We ended up paying over Rs 700 per day for a lodge nearby. If we had known earlier, we could have saved a lot," said Lakhiram Oraon, an attendant waiting outside the hospital ward. Rims would manage the shelter till an agency is finalised. One person has been assigned the task of a caretaker of the shelter home while a few take care of day-to-day maintenance, sources said.
