What is Mental Health

Mental Health involves the way that each person balances his or her needs, ambition, abilities, ideals, feelings and conscience in order to meet the demands of everyday life. Mental health influences how we think and feel, about our selves and others, and how we interpret events. It affects our capacity to learn, to communicate, and to form and sustain relationships.
