Mental health is an expression of our emotions and signifies a successful adaptation to a range of demands.

Most recently, the field of Global Mental Health has emerged, which has been defined as 'the area of study, research and practice that places a priority on improving mental health and achieving equity in mental health for all people worldwide'.
