14 February 2023 – It’s a two-way street: your mental health affects your life. Likewise, your life affects your mental health. Some people with mental health issues will find that it impacts their life–work, relationships, sleep, nearly all facets of life can be negatively affected. When things happen in life (divorce, loss of job, death of loved one), those can impact our mental health.

Consequently, assessing our mental health and our lives is essential to ensure we are as holistically healthy as possible.
