Mental health refers to a person's emotional, psychological, and social well-being, impacting how they think, feel, and act. It affects how individuals manage stress, maintain relationships, and make decisions. Mental health involves aspects such as personal well-being, confidence in one's abilities, independence, competence, and the realization of one's potential. In positive psychology, good mental health is seen as the ability to enjoy life and maintain a balance between activities while building resilience. Definitions of mental health can vary across cultures and professions, influenced by different perspectives. Early signs of mental health concerns may include sleep disturbances, low energy, or thoughts of self-harm or harm to others.
The resources listed below provide valuable support for improving mental health and accessing professional help.
