[ENG] 🧠 EU Mental Health Week
“The way we think, feel, act, connect with others and respond to problems and challenges… is an important part of our health. This part of health is called mental health.”
Like physical health, mental health is not static - it changes over time. Some periods feel lighter and more manageable, while others can feel more demanding.
What's important is recognising that:
✔ Mental health can recover and strenghten
✔ Struggles are part of life
✔ People already have strengths, experiences, and resources that can help
✔ Support, connections, and paying attention to what already works can make a eaningful difference
At Médecins du Monde, we work to ensure that mental health is recognised as essential - for everyone, everywhere. 💚
💬 There is no health without mental health.
