The World Health Organization states that mental health is about a state in which individuals can figure out their potential, cope with the ups and downs of life, and work productively to contribute to their community and the society. So it’s about what’s going well, and not about what isn’t going right.

Issues with mental health are nothing to be ashamed of.
