      What is mental health?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      Mental health is a level of psychological well-being or an absence of mental illness. It is the \u201cpsychological state of someone who is functioning at a satisfactory level of emotional and behavioural adjustment\u201d.<\/p>\n

      Mental health includes 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 essential at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood.<\/p>\n

      Throughout your life, if you experience mental health problems, your thinking, mood, and behaviour could be affected. Many factors contribute to mental health problems, including:<\/p>\n

      \n
      • Biological factors, such as genes or brain chemistry,<\/li>\n
      • Life experiences, such as trauma or abuse, and<\/li>\n
      • Family history of mental health problems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Mental health problems are common, but\u00a0help is available. People with mental health problems can get better, and many\u00a0recover\u00a0completely.<\/p>\n

        Why is online Mental Health Awareness training essential?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

        By raising\u00a0awareness, mental\u00a0health\u00a0can now be seen as an illness. These illnesses can be managed by treatment. We should not isolate mental illness from physical health conditions, such as diabetes, blood pressure, or cancer.\u00a0Mental health awareness training will improve our understanding of and how we interact and care for people with mental health problems, including:<\/p>\n

        \n
        • Equal access to the most effective and safest care and treatment,<\/li>\n
        • Equal efforts to improve the quality of care,<\/li>\n
        • Allocation of time, effort and resources on a basis comparable with need,<\/li>\n
        • Equal status within healthcare education and practice,<\/li>\n
        • Equally high aspirations for service users, and<\/li>\n
        • Equal status in the measurement of health outcomes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
