Being mentally healthy expends our life to experience more joy and happiness. However,it can also bring sadness in us. Mental health can stay from childhood to teenagers and adulthood also. According to World Health Organization (WHO), mental health is of positive value, integral to our wellness and supports to shape our life and our world. Even though both mental and physical health is equally important,but moreover mental health is important. For some people, physical health important as it improves the brain health, reduces the risk of diseases,and so on. However,for most of the people, physical health is important than mental health. Some of the reasons why mental health is more important than physical health are no affect on physical health, productivity can increase, and can reduce stress.
The first reason why mental health is important is that there will be no affect on physical health or appearance. If a person is physically healthy then that person will not get any Ham to his or her appearance. Some people think that being mentally ill will cause physical harm but it is not true as one of report showed that a person who was having depression could overcome her problem without affecting her physical health and she is now leaving a happy life. This shows that being lonely, mentally unstable will make us to gain more strength and become strong. Those people who disagreed with this idea said that physical health is more important compared to mental health as mental health will cause the increase in rate of suicide and will harm the physically. However ,people can overcome the problems without harming themselves physically.
Mental health is more important compare to physical health because we can increase productivity. Even if a person is mentally unstable or is having mental illness then that person can also increase the protectivity for living. For example, many people now a days who are having mental disorders are able to come forward and share their experience to the public through social media which is helping the public to know what the particular disorders and that person who is having disorder is able to increase the protectivity for the living. Not only that many celebrities who are having mental illness are able to increase productivity and are living happy life. Those who disagree with this idea said that mental health is will not increase the protectivity but will affect their productivity earned from offices and will make them feel embarrassed.
Mental health is more important than physical health as it helps to reduce stress. Stress is one of the most problem faced by many people like studies stress, family stress and so on. If a person is having stress then it can be reduced. WHO has a report that stress is the fourth most common disorders and about everyone gets it but it is not caused from mental health but it helps to reduce it because in schools there is counselors where students can share the problems and the counselor helps you reduce it . If a person is mentally ill and that person has stress then the person can actually reduce the stress. Those people who are against this idea said that people are getting more stress because of mental health.
Lastly, physical health and mental health both are important. For some physical health might be important but for most mental health is important as it will not affect the person's physical health, productivity of a person can increase and it can help to reduce stress. Hence, mental health can make a person strong and will let us live a happy life.
