Mental health is the overall wellness of how you think, regulate your feelings and behave. Sometimes people experience a significant disturbance in this mental functioning. A mental disorder may be present when patterns or changes in thinking, feeling or behaving cause distress or disrupt a person's ability to function. A mental health disorder may affect how well you: . Maintain personal or family relationship . Function in social settings . Perform at work or school . Learn at a level expected for your age and intelligence . Participate in other important activities
Mental Health Conditions: Anxiety, Depression, Eating disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Schizophrenia,... Each mental health condition has its own signs and symptoms. In general, however, professional help might be needed if you experience: . Marked changes in personality, eating or sleeping patterns . An inability to cope with problems or daily activities . Feeling of disconnection or withdrawal from normal activities . Unusual or magical thinking . Excessive anxiety . Prolonged sadness, depression or apathy . Thoughts or statements about suicide or harming others . Substance misuse . Extreme mood swings . Excessive anger, hostility or violent behavior
Many people who have mental health disorders consider their signs and symptoms a normal part of life or avoid treatment out of shame or fear. If you're concerned about your mental health, don't hesitate to seek help.
