Many people have mental health concerns from time to time. But a mental health concern becomes a mental illness when ongoing symptoms cause frequent stress and causes problems with one’s ability to function.
A mental illness can cause problems in our daily life, such as at school or work or in relationships. Mild cases can be managed with counselling. But as symptoms worsen, they need to be managed with medications.
