What is health ?



 
The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity".

Therefore a  complete sense of well being involves the journey of nurturing our physical, mental and spiritual health.

Total mental health involves not only treatment of emotional issues but discovering and developing the strengths, abilities and talents which is inherent in every individual.

 

"Life is difficult. This is the great truth, one of the greatest truths -  it is a great truth because once we see this truth, we transcend it."

About Mental Health



Mental illness is a Medical illness.
Just like any other medical illnesses e.g. hypertension or diabetes, treatments are available for people suffering from mental illness.
They deserved to get well and resume a normal life.
We should not treat people suffering from mental illness as abnormal, but as human being with dignity and every right for medical care and attention.
