WHAT DO YOU UNDERSTAND BY MENTAL HEALTH?

According to how i understand, Mental health is a state of mind mostly to be able to deal and cope with the stree life throws at you.

A person with a good mental health will deal with the stree and challenges and still be okay even if the stress defeat them at the end.

But, a person with an unstable and poor Mental health will always be too emotional, and can even do something drastic like commiting suicide or just give up completely.

1. Child abuses
2. Bereavement
3. Drugs and Alcohol abuses
4. Stree
5. Domestic Violence
6. Money rituals, etc.

The above are few of the main causes of mental illness in my country as a whole, most especially money rituals.

HOW DO YOU OR YOUR COUNTRY MANAGE THE MENTAL HEALTH SITUATION IN YOUR COUNTRY?

In my country there are many cases of mental illness people because of abusing and takingbof hard drugs etc.
So the government build a large mental health hospital for mental illness people and also provide free therapy for them, in order to help them get well.

WHATBIS YOUR ADVICE TO YOUR COUNTRY OR COMMUNITY LEADERS ON HOW TO IMPROVE MENTAL HEALTH?

My advice to my country is that government should invest in programs and services that promote mental health, like psychotherapy or counseling, which is also known as talk therapy, support group, brain stimulation therapy and hospital or residential treatment program.
