What do you know 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 healthy choices.
We can think of mental health as the ability to adapt in challenging situations by effectively managing our thoughts and emotions in order to continue pursuing worthy goals and behaving in line with our values. Mental health is not something you have, it is something you practice.
Mental health can be broken down further into three major components: cognitive health, emotional health, and behavioral health. Each of these components interacts with and influences the others, and they are all imperative to overall well-being.
COGNITIVE HEALTH
This relates to thinking. The way we view and interpret the world around us and form thoughts comes under cognition. While thoughts vary and make us the unique individual we are, sometimes cognition can be irrational. Meaning it is not based on evidence. Phobias, for instance, are irrational fears because they are baseless or disproportionate to the threat posed.
Cognitive health must be monitored not just in individuals suffering from mental disorders, but also in perfectly normal people. Negative thoughts, like 'I will fail', can prevent people from reaching their full potential in life by making them demotivate.
EMOTIONAL HEALTH
Emotions and the mind have a close relationship. Our perceptions help shape our emotions and feelings. These feelings, in turn, determine our decisions and actions, or lack thereof. Sometimes emotions can prevent us from making logical decisions.
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
Behavior or our actions are a direct consequence of our mental processes. It is critical to study behavior as it has the most impact on our life, especially in a social context. Behavior is a product of our cultural and social values. Certain behaviors may be normal in some cultures but viewed as deviant in others.
These little things can go a very long way when it comes to your health in general, you should not make any compromise on your health .
