Mental Health is the overall emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act and helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Good mental health is more than the absence of mental illness; it’s the presence of positive characteristics like resilience, balanced emotions, and a sense of purpose.
