Assessing mental health is not as simple as taking a blood test. Awareness, understanding and knowledge of mental health issues may help move towards achieving health and cultivating a sense of emotional wellbeing. Preserving a healthy balance is important to the maintenance of ongoing mental health, with or without a diagnosis.

Statistics show one in five Canadians will face a serious mental health issue such as depression or anxiety. Most mental illnesses can be treated and have a high rate of recovery among those who access the appropriate care. The road to feeling well and living a fulfilling life may start with acknowledging that sometimes help is needed. It’s important to identify that moment and take action.

There may be areas where you can put things in better balance or it may help you identify if talking to your doctor or a mental health professional would be worthwhile.
