What is Mental Health?
Mental health is a state of mental well-being that enables people to cope with the stresses of life, realize their abilities, learn well and work well, and contribute to their community.(1)
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. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. (2)
Mental health is a basic human right. And it is crucial to personal, community and socio-economic development. (1)
Mental Health is a Human Issue…

Global MH Statistics From CHC
with a known mental disorder never seek help from a health professional because of stigma, discrimination or misinformation
14.3% of deaths worldwide, or approximately 8 million deaths each year, are attributable to mental disorders.
You never have to face your struggles alone or in silence. Having a mental health condition is nothing to be ashamed of. Seeking help is an act of bravery and compassion. In moments of crisis, being kind to yourself means reaching out for support. Remember, asking for help is a gift to your future self and loved ones. We are naturally designed for connection, so consider reaching out to a trusted friend, a good listener, or a mental health provider for support today.
