Our emotions play a key role in our mental health. They can make us feel happy, sad, frustrated, depressed, angry, fear or in calm. But when they are affected, the emotions can affect our thinking, behaviour or physical health through symptoms such as insomnia, tiredness, overthinking, lack of energy and many others. So, the goal is to be able to successfully manage the most difficult situation in our life to have a better relationship with ourselves and our loved ones. If we have mental health we will be able to face any situation no matter how difficult it may be. Look for a mental health support is the best decision!
