“No health without mental health.”
Dr. David Satcher, former U.S. Surgeon General
Mental health is just as important as physical health, as it affects all aspects of
daily living — including one’s thoughts, feelings, and behavior.
What is
Mental Health?
Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It determines how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices.
What is
Mental Illness?
