Mental health

Most people when they hear about “Mental Health” think of “Mental Illness.” But mental health implies much more than the absence of mental illness.

Mentally healthy people understand that no one is perfect, that everyone has limits and that you can’t be everything to everyone. They experience daily a range of emotions such as joy, love, satisfaction, sadness, anger, and frustration. They are able to cope with the challenges and changes of daily life with balance and know how to seek help when they have difficulty coping with major conflicts, disturbances, traumas or transitions in different life cycles.

A person’s Mental Health is related to how they respond to life’s demands and how they harmonize their desires, abilities, ambitions, ideas, and emotions.
