World Mental Health Day is celebrated on October 10th each year. The theme for 2023 is "Mental Health is a Universal Human Right." This theme is a reminder that everyone has the right to access mental health care and support, regardless of their income, race, ethnicity, or other factors.
At With You in Mind, we are committed to providing high-quality mental health services to everyone who needs them. We recognize that any mental health issue can have a huge impact on an individual, and we are here to help people take the first step towards healing and recovery.
We also recognize the importance of creating a safe and supportive space for people to talk about their mental health. Talking about your mental health with someone you trust can be life-changing. It can help you to feel less alone, to better understand your experiences, and to develop coping strategies.
What does it mean to be mentally healthy?
Mental health is not just the absence of mental illness. It is a state of well-being in which people are able to cope with the normal stresses of life, work productively and fruitfully, and make a contribution to their community.
Mentally healthy people are able to:
Manage their emotions
Think clearly
Make responsible decisions
Build and maintain relationships
Enjoy life
