Abstract

Effective communication is crucial for mental as well as emotional well-being, playing a key role in determining the way people express themselves, build connections and relate to others. This research focuses on understanding the impacts of interpersonal communication in life of an individual and how does it affects the mental health. Through conducting a survey of 100 individuals of age ranging between 18 to 25 years, we came to the finding that many of the participants struggle in talking or conveying their emotions, which leads to feelings of suffocation and difficulty in daily life. A substantial portion of the respondents mentioned that communication challenges often affect their relationships, while some of them told about experiencing worsened bonds due to communication difficulties. Our findings emphasize the importance of encouraging a better open communication to enhance mental well-being and improve overall quality of life.
