Mental health refers to a person’s emotional, psychological, and social well-being, influencing how individuals think, feel, and behave, as well as how they cope with stress, relate to others, and make choices. It encompasses a wide range of conditions, from anxiety and depression to more severe disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Mental health is shaped by a complex mix of genetic, biological, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Increasingly recognized as just as important as physical health, mental health is a major focus of scientific research aimed at understanding its causes, improving treatments, and reducing stigma. Advances in neuroscience, psychology, and public health are driving more holistic approaches to mental well-being across all stages of life.
