Nothing defines the quality of life in a community more clearly than people who regard themselves, or whom the consensus chooses to regard, as mentally unwell.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Mental health can improve overall well-being and prevent other illnesses. And since mental health problems have a serious economic impact on vulnerable communities, making them a priority can save lives and markedly improve people's quality of life.
Without a sense of caring, there can be no sense of community.
Individuals will speak their minds, which I think is healthy.
There is no health without mental health; mental health is too important to be left to the professionals alone, and mental health is everyone's business.
At the end of the day, the more quality individuals you develop in the community, the better off the community should be.
To some extent, people who are insane are nonconformists, and society and their family wish they would live what appear to be useful lives.
The difference between a healthy person and one who is mentally ill is the fact that the healthy one has all the mental illnesses, and the mentally ill person has only one.
We need, ultimately, to be able to view mental health with the same clear-headedness we show when talking about physical health.
I read somewhere that 77 per cent of all the mentally ill live in poverty. Actually, I'm more intrigued by the 23 per cent who are apparently doing quite well for themselves.
It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.
