Mental disorders

Mental disorders are health conditions that affect how a person thinks, feels, behaves, and relates to others. They can cause significant distress and impact daily life, relationships, and functioning. Causes can include genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors. Common examples include depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. These conditions are treatable through therapy, medication, lifestyle changes, or a combination. Recognizing and seeking help for mental disorders is important, as they are medical conditions that require understanding and support, just like physical illnesses.
