Struggling with my definition (looking forward to Monday)

Submitted by merry2e on Sun, 09/14/2008 - 12:42pm.

     “Mental health” in individuals would include a level of consciousness and awareness for their own actions, behaviors, words, and understanding their behaviors have an impact on their life and others.  Through a healthy awareness of self and responsibility for self, healthy biological changes can occur within the brain. But then…who/what defines healthy?

Look forward to Monday's discussion.
