Every Second American Is Mentally Ill… Are You?

Women's Mental Health


What It Means to You






Take Action Now… Keep your Mental Health in Good Condition





Everyone around you affects your mental health and you, in turn, affect theirs.


This can be good or bad depending... Do your friends and Family help you keep



Balance and Control in your life or do they help promote the opposite?






Take the time to relax and think about the things festering around in your head.



Talking about the problems you are having also helps a great deal. Finding someone to confide in is very important.

Clearing your brain each evening of all the days' worries is one way to keep your brain from being clogged with unnecessary bullshit.



Remember…



Your mental health is important.

You will not have a healthy body if



You don't also take care of your mind.


You have to take care of yourself

To take care of the people who

Depend on you, your strength,
And your well-being.



Promote your own mental health
By keeping up with people and
Activities you enjoy.

Find support when you need it.



Remember that by caring for your



Mental health and getting help



When you need it, you can



Enjoy life at any age.



Don't be afraid or ashamed to ask for help…

Everyone needs help at some point.
