What is Mental Health

January 29, 2017  |  By Talk Naija

Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel and act as we cope with life. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices.

Let’s de-stigmatize and begin to SPEAK about our mental status. Let’s show upcoming generations and our children that it’s important to talk about what we are going through mentally/emotionally and that it is OK to seek help.
