Though it's easy to view ourselves in parts - our physical self, our social self, our mental and emotional self - we should remember that these parts are deeply interconnected. Physical problems can affect our mental and emotional well-being, and the opposite is true as well. Mental and emotional health issues are no less serious than a physical health condition, and because these problems often stem from a variety of causes, they can be even more difficult to treat. If you're living with mental and/or emotional health problems, please join us! Share your frustrations and find support, advice, and an understanding ear.
