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
