A digital platform promoting mental health among young people
Soy yo literal is a digital platform focused on mental health content for young people, designed to provide information, support, and guidance.
The project is active on Instagram, TikTok, and Telegram, offering informative posts on topics like toxic relationships, bullying, addiction, and feelings of emptiness. The content is crafted from a perspective that is uncensored, non-judgmental, responsible, and respectful. Additionally, Soy yo literal provides information and advice for those supporting others through difficult situations.
The platform also offers assistance to those in need of help, including two free sessions, available either online or in person, with a professional prevention team, as well as comprehensive psychological services.
