17. The Bottom Line

The brain is an organ like any other in the body, and just like other organs, it can be susceptible to disease and dysfunction. Mental health is a crucial component of our overall well-being, and it affects everyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. Just as we prioritize physical health, we must also attend to our mental health.

Taking steps to maintain good mental health, such as managing stress, seeking support when needed, and practicing self-care, is essential for a balanced and happy life. Recognizing that mental health is an integral part of our overall health underscores the importance of looking after it, without exception.
