WHAT IS MENTAL HEALTH?

ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH 

Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood.

IMPORTANCE OF MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS

Mental health awareness is the ongoing effort to reduce the stigma around mental illness and mental health conditions by sharing our personal experiences. Often, because of misconceptions about mental health and mental fitness, people often suffer in silence and their conditions go untreated. Mental Health Awareness helps to educating the public about mental health but also to reduce the stigma and discrimination that people with mental illness are often subjected to. Many people struggle with mental illness but do not realize it.
