MESSAGE FROM HOD

Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood.

“Through our emotions, our mind, body, and spirit are sending signals that something has to shift. There isn’t anybody out there who doesn’t have a mental health issue, whether it’s depression, anxiety, or how to cope with relationships. “Mental health needs a great deal of attention. Mental health is vital in all stages of life. For you to realize your full potential, achieve success and live a more fulfilling life, you need to have a healthy mental state.

While taking care of your mental health might mean getting professional support, you should also consider making the right changes for you besides seeking professional help if you need it, you should make time to connect with others, think positively yourself and get physically active.
