Abstract

Mental health is a crucial aspect of overall well-being that encompasses emotional, psychological, and social functioning. It influences how individuals think, feel, and act, and plays a significant role in coping with stress, forming relationships, and making decisions. Mental health disorders, such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, affect millions globally and can impair daily functioning and quality of life. Factors contributing to mental health issues include genetic predispositions, environmental stressors, and life experiences. Effective mental health management involves a combination of therapeutic interventions, medication, lifestyle adjustments, and support systems. Early intervention and awareness are vital in reducing stigma and improving access to care. Promoting mental health through education, supportive environments, and proactive measures can lead to healthier individuals and communities
