Mental wellness does not mean feeling calm, productive or positive all the time. Stressful periods, difficult emotions and days when you have less energy are normal parts of life.
A more realistic goal is to build habits and coping strategies that help you respond to pressure, recover after demanding periods, stay connected to supportive people and recognize when a problem needs more than self-care. Mental well-being is also shaped by circumstances such as relationships, work, finances, health and living conditions, so improving it is not simply a matter of thinking more positively. [1]
