🧠 Mental Health 101: More Than Just the Absence of Illness

People frequently associate the term "mental health" with conditions like anxiety, depression, or other illnesses. However, mental health is about wellness, not just illness. Mental health is more than simply not feeling depressed or anxious, just as physical health is more than simply not getting a cold.

Our emotional, psychological, and social well-being are all components of mental health. It has an impact on our thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and stress management. A person in good mental health is able to recover from difficult situations, form enduring bonds with others, and deal with life's ups and downs with fortitude rather than being someone who never feels depressed.

Every day, our mental health can change. Stress, relationships, the environment, hormones, and even diet all have an impact on it. And just as we take care of our physical health by exercising and eating a healthy diet, we also need to take care of our mental health by getting enough sleep, connecting with others, finding purpose, and receiving support.

Above all, mental health is not just for those who are struggling; it is for everyone. Setting mental priorities is a strength, not a weakness.

Let's see mental health as a part of life that should be nourished rather than as a "problem to be fixed". 🌱
