Mental Health Awareness
Mental health affects every single one of us.
How we feel, and how we live our daily lives. But mental health illness refers to a wide range of conditions that relate to how a person:
- Feels
- Perceives a situation
- Behaves
These can range from mild levels to quite severe levels depending on the strength of an individual’s illness. Of which, there are over 200 classified forms.
If you have poor mental health, you may find that the ways you reach certain situations and feel about things can become difficult, and in some cases impossible.
The same as if you had a physical illness, a broken wrist would affect your daily tasks such as driving, lifting, and even eating. The majority of people would see their Doctor and undertake appropriate treatment. However, mental health hasn’t always been looked upon in the same efficient way.
Looking after your mental health is just as important as taking care of your physical health.
