MENTAL HEALTH
•an aspect of health that is related to our
emotional, psychological and social self. Our
way of thinking, acting and feeling on a certain
scenario is affected. It also affects how we are
going to handle different situations in life, may
it be as an individual or as a group. It is
important that each should be aware of their
health mentally.
•Good mental health is what anyone needs
to live an enjoyable and fulfilling life.
However, mental health problems may
occur at any age that is why it is
important that any individual is aware of
factors that may affect them mentally.
Here are the
factors that
affect mental
health:
Low self-esteem
- Low self-esteem
affects one's
view of self-
worth.
Neglected - some
children at their very
young age didn’t
receive the love that
they need which
made it hard for
them to be
comfortable and
open with their
feelings.
Lack of Confidence
- people who lack
confidence are the
ones who are not
very open with new
things to discover
or try. They have a
fear of failing and
not ready to take
risks.
Family breakup or
Loss - a person at
any age who went
through a family
separation or loss
is an individual
who hardly can
cope up with life’s
challenges
especially if
he/she values the
whole family.
Difficult Behavior -
some people who
are not open with
the people around
them might find a
hard time to express
themselves when
they feel unhappy
or angry. They tend
to act out and
appropriately
express themselves.
Illness - people
suffering from any
illness are the ones
that are affected by
low self-esteem and
poor self-confidence.
They have the mindset
of not being able to do
things because they
are physically
incapable.
Abuse - people,
especially children, who
victimized by abuse are
highly at risk of poor
mental health. It usually
takes a lot of time to
cope up. They typically
find it hard to trust
again. Suffering from
trauma makes it hard for
them to get along and
go out from their
comfort zone.
