What’s mental health? The term “mental health” is used to describe the combination of our emotional and psychological states. The feelings we have, our personalities, and how we relate and interact with others are also a part of mental health. Plus, our behaviors as a result of our emotions and thinking processes. Regardless of where we are in life, it’s important to ensure good mental health practices are being taken. And, any mental health issues are identified and addressed to maintain a healthy well-being.
Mental health is a general term for our psychological and emotional welfare. But, mental health issues are when individuals experience issues with their mental health and are diagnosable conditions. They are characterized by symptoms and behaviors that arise from psychological or emotional changes.
While we don’t understand why every mental health issue may develop, we do know that certain things put people at a higher risk for developing them at some point in their lives. Some things that can increase a person’s chance of developing these issues include:
