Mental Health is as necessary for living a successful and happy life as physical health. We cannot think of our well-being and welfare without mental health. We can derive the maximum benefits out of our resources, abilities and opportunities only when we are mentally fit and healthy. Since the power to rule the world is in the mind, not in the body, so mental health is of paramount importance. A person who has the following qualities besides being free from mental diseases can be regarded as a mentally healthy person:
