Mental health is a crucial component of overall well-being, affecting our thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. Mental health impacts our ability to cope with stress, form meaningful connections with others, and reach our full potential. Good mental health is essential for leading a happy and productive life. In contrast, poor mental health can have far-reaching and devastating consequences, including decreased quality of life, strained relationships, and even physical health problems. It is important to prioritize mental health, just as physical health, to lead a healthy, fulfilling life.

mental health to me is how I deal with stress and relate with others, making sound decisions and judgement, it is important because if your mind is foggy/out of balance you make poor life choices and that can lead to dangerous situations- but I am no expert, hell barely a teen so what do I really know

If you have never had to worry about your own mental health consider yourself lucky.

Depression sucks.
