Mental Health Project! Freshmen Year!

What is mental health exactly? Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is critical at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. Mental health can hugely affect our lives if not taken care of properly. Emotional health allows you to work productively and cope with the stress of everyday living. It can help you realize your full potential and grow stronger. It can also help you work with other people, contribute to society, and enable you to live your best life.

Physical health can also be affected in this situation. Vast amounts of research show a link between a good mental state and physical signs of excellent health. These can also include lower blood pressure, reduced risk of heart disease, and a healthier weight. Emotionally healthy people are in control of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. They’re able to cope with life’s challenges and can keep problems in perspective. They feel good about themselves and usually tend to have good relationships with others. Being emotionally healthy doesn’t mean you’re happy all the time. It means you’re knowledgeable of your emotions. You can deal with them, whether they’re positive or negative. Emotionally healthy people still feel stress, anger, and sadness. But they know how to manage their unwanted negative feelings. They can tell when a problem is more than they can handle on their own. 

Yet again, not everyone is born with a healthy mindset. Some may need guidance from a Dr or trusted friend. People who have this issue have to be in touch with their emotions. They should accept that they are feeling a certain way. Individuals cannot control that they have a mental illness but can control how they respond to their symptoms. 

You may be asking, how will I know when to seek help, or when to suggest a colleague to seak a specialist? Well, some signs you may want to watch for are. Feeling sad or down, confused thinking or reduced ability to concentrate, excessive fears or worries, extreme feelings of guilt, mood swings of highs and lows, withdrawal from friends and activities, significant tiredness, low energy or problems sleeping, and many more. You may only notice one or two. Some may suffer from them all. Either way, no matter how many on the list you see. I would suggest you still seek guidance.

If these symptoms sound familiar to your life, start by speaking with a counsellor or Dr about these issues. If you are in school, talking to the school counsellor is also a great choice. They can help you make the right choices on your journey to gain back a healthy mindset. Also, I want you to remember that this is perfectly normal and you never have to be embarrassed about it. I hope you have learned a bit from what I have shared with you and will help you in the future. Thank you for reading this, have a great day/night!

Dear Mrs.Larue

I can’t even think about how horrible it is for you at Obedience School. I’m a cat so I can’t go unless there is a Cat Obedience School. I’m glad you’re back Ike. You did a great job saving your owner. We can go back to you being the cop and us being the robber. Why, don’t people know that game? I forgot to say that the party was great. The pie was really good too. I will see you tomorrow!

Love,

The Hibbit’s Cats

Barn Race

Roll the dice then read your number .Move up how many the dice says.If you land on a square that tells you to do something you do it. When you land next to the dock go over to the pond and you cant get out until two turns. When you get to the end at the barn the doors will be opened you are welcome in. And you win.

Best Day Of My Life

It was a normal day. I woke up at 6:30 A.M. and got ready for school. I was in 5th grade and that school day was long and boring because i wanted to go see Nalla’s kittens. She had one white kitten and two black kittens. I wanted the white one so bad. He is small,playful,and lazy too! Just like me. That day when my Mom and Dad came to pick me up my Mom said ” Audrey go get the kitten you want so we can show your Dad.” I said okay and I went to get him. He was hiding behind a mattress. I walked into the living room and my Mom had my bag. She said ” Okay let’s go. You should she your face.” I said thank you to everyone and said goodbye. I named him Samson and he is my first cat I ever had.

Child’s labor

Reading what the they have to do is sad they have their fingers cut off their feet broken by machines. Its sad they get 10-15 cents a day is not much.They have to use their money to get food. And they are kids working the same amount of time but only getting half of what men do. 12-14 hours of work is a lot. They don’t even have school and also they use their money for food for their family because people are getting payed so badly.
