"mental health"???????????

Cornelius Thornborrow: Yes, being mentally healthy is definitely possible. The thing is, bad things will always happen-that's the nature of life but an emotionally healthy person will have good coping mechanisms and negative events and periods don't have to drag a person's whole life down generally. I do know people who have very good luck, starting with being born into very wealthy, stable family lives which gave them a good start to life, they went to good school then good universities and don't have to money worries. Some people don't like to initiate change in their life and stay in their comfort zone. That also reduces going through tough times as they don't expose themselves to challenging situations which have potential to cause stress or go wrong. No one can avoid bad times fully though.Many people experience mild mental health problems during their life and overcome it. Even with severe and enduring mental illness people can learn to manage symptoms and hav! e a good quality of life in spite of them.At your age the things you talk about experiencing are perfectly normal, so don't worry. You talk about about your technique of coping with things so keep on with that. Just enjoy and make the most of good times. Talk to someone responsible you trust if you need support. Things will become more settled as you get older :)...Show more
