You Can Live Your Life Well
Why Mental Health Matters
Some people think that only people with mental illnesses have to pay attention to their mental health. But the truth is that your emotions, thoughts and attitudes affect your energy, productivity and overall health. Good mental health strengthens your ability to cope with everyday hassles and more serious crises and chal-lenges. Good mental health is essential to creating the life you want.
Just as you brush your teeth or get a flu shot, you can take steps to promote your mental health. A great way to start is by learning to deal with stress.
How Stress Hurts Stress can eat away at your well-being like acid eating away at your stomach. Actually, stress can contribute to stomach pains and lots of other problems, like:
headaches insomnia overeating back pain high blood pressure irritability vulnerability to infection
Stress also can lead to serious mental health problems, like depression and anxiety disorders. If you think you have such a problem, you can get help. Of course you can't magically zap all sources of stress. But you can learn to deal with them in a way that pro-motes the well-being you want--and deserve.
