Working on your mental health as an everyday practice is extremely important.  It improves your physical, emotional, and mental well being.  This allows individuals to be more productive, happier and less tired throughout the day.  Being resilient against mental problems will only get you so far before getting to a point where it is unbearable.  I believe that treating your mental health issues as early as possible will make for the fastest and best recovery.  Overall, practicing daily mental health routines and getting treatment when required is very important to maintaining a healthy mental state.
