Overview

Mental health is defined by the World Health Organization as a "state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community.

Urbanization, stressful job situations, changing lifestyles, the pressures on young people and loneliness among elders have become significant mental health challenges in recent times

People are troubled with the routine of daily living in the context of work, studies, marriage and relationships. A healthy lifestyle and good coping skills are core requirements for maintaining one’s psychological and physical well-being.
