In honor of World Mental Health Day (which is on Oct. 10), we want to lift a cup of tea to all those who strive to navigate their lives while living with mental health issues, such as depression, schizophrenia, anxiety, mood swings, and other challenges. We also salute all the mental health professionals who work hard to help those who seek assistance.

Most of all, we want to emphasize the importance of good mental health and discuss several tools that everyone can use to support it.

Mental Health Today

The theme for World Mental Health Day is “Make mental health and well-being for all a global priority.” This focus, which was set by the World Federation for Mental Health, is especially poignant and critical now, given the stress and anxiety surrounding the recent global health crisis.
