This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 38-year-old male. I feel stressed often. Could you provide an overview of what mental health encompasses, including emotional, psychological, and social well-being, and why it is crucial for overall health? How can individuals become more aware of their own mental health and recognize the signs of potential issues or concerns? What are effective strategies for managing stress and preventing it from negatively impacting one's mental health and physical well-being? Can you explain the common signs and symptoms of anxiety and depression, and what steps can individuals take to manage these conditions or seek professional help? How can one incorporate self-care practices into their daily routine to support their mental health, and what are some self-care activities to consider?

Kindly help.
