I feel our emotional wellness is just a part of our overall mental health, as mentioned on the UC Davis website “Eight Dimensions of Wellness”. As we strengthen and work with each of those dimensions, we are strengthening our overall mental health. 

Someone who is “emotionally stable or well” doesn’t necessarily walk around with a giant smile plastered on their face. They instead are able to be involved in conflict and react based on facts. This person is able to navigate through a day where plans change without warning, yet they embrace it and make the best of the situation. Someone who is emotionally well is able to offer insight to situations based on past experiences and not just on their feelings about the people or things involved. This person is aware of the shift in their emotions as subjects of conversation change.

Someone who is mentally healthy maintains these same qualities. They are able to step back from trauma and drama within their own life and see it for what it is, instead of getting worked up over feelings and emotions. Mental health is also more than emotions, it’s based on the wiring of the brain and how we are able to handle our differences and the thoughts that pass through our minds.

Emotional wellness and mental health work together to help one better understand the concepts of each other. Emotional wellness focuses more on our ability to work with and acknowledge our emotions, whereas mental health focuses more on the well-being of someone without a focus on awareness. Both mental health and emotional wellness focus on how you handle different aspects of yourself emotionally, psychologically, and socially.

According to the University of New Hampshire’s article “Emotional Wellness”, an individual who displays emotional wellness by being able to talk with someone about emotional concerns, saying ‘“no” without guilt, feeling content, feeling like they have a strong support network, the ability to relax, and feeling good about themselves.

Emotional wellness is your emotional state of you well being mental health is more affected by your learning of different things. Being able to deal with positive and negative things include both emotional and and mental state. 

Emotional wellness looks like you can take more negative thoughts and feelings. Because when you have figured out your emotional wellness you can handle life  stress.

Mental wellness on the other hand can be interpreted as something that branches off of mental health as it is the overall self-awareness of these aspects of mental health and making actions based on any concerns in your state of being in the mind some cases of mental wellness can be noticing how you act around certain and having empathy and respect for others well being

Mental health can include the things we characterize as being bad, such as depression or anxiety. At the same time, emotional wellness tends to focus on the positives of how you handle your emotions. Emotional wellness also tends to focus on ways that we can work on positively responding to our emotions. 

A critical part of maintaining good mental health is emotional wellness, which means being able to actively know what you are feeling and how to handle your feelings. Typically, emotional wellness involves being able to detect what emotions you are feeling and dealing with them in a beneficial way. For example, a person who is emotionally well will be open to seeking and accepting support from others when they struggle emotionally.

There are many ways to help deal with one’s mental health. According to the “Samhsa” a great skill to deal with mental health is to stay positive and not let the little things bring you down in life. The symptoms of bad mental health include a wild eating schedule, sporadic amounts of sleep and constant mood swings.

 The signs of bad emotional wellness may consist of the inability to stay calm, struggling with social interactions, and beating yourself up about the tough things in life. Some of the best ways to control and improve emotional wellness are to take time to calm down and recharge, tell others about what is going on in life and to take care of yourself. Whether that be eating well or having a strong schedule for everyday activities.

Emotional wellness is how you can cope with positive and negative emotions and also be aware of them. It's like when you are struggling with activities at work and just keep trying and don't let it get to you. Then when you finish it you will feel a big relief because you know how hard you tried and finally got it done these happen all the time without you even noticing.

Mental health is more of how you make decisions and whether they are good not. Also just more so a persons well being. And whether or not you can make rational decisions in a hard time. Emotional wellness is how you can change your feelings and your mood through difficult or stressful times. Being able to regulate your emotions like anger, sadness, stress, and joy.

Emotional wellness refers to the ability to understand, manage, and express one’s emotions effectively. It has to do with coping with both positive and negative feelings. People with good emotional wellness can cope with stress, and move through life’s challenges, and keep a good outlook on life. This aspect of wellness often is  influenced by personal experiences, environment, and social interactions.

Emotional wellness will affect people’s mind sometimes but not always how they look. The reason I say this is just because someone looks so happy doesn’t always mean that they are happy all the time. Someone could be struggling with their mental health but still try to not show people that they are struggling.

Mental health is more about the way you feel, it's your emotional state and how you feel throughout your life. Having good mental health is important because it makes you better as an individual. Emotional wellness is how you handle these feelings or what you do about them. How you fix them, make them better or worse. That's why it's important to have good emotional wellness because it is important to understand yourself and be kind to yourself through tough times. They work together but they also may not, but it is important to understand and to be in control of your emotions/feelings as much as you can.

There are a lot of factors to emotional wellness. If you are able to say "no" without guilt or regret, feeling content, being able to talk to someone about your feelings, accepting who you are, being able to relax, knowing you have a strong support network, you have good emotional wellness.

Stick to a treatment plan, keep your primary care physician updated, learn about the condition, practice good self-care, reach out to family and friends, develop coping skills, and last, but not least, get enough sleep.

Emotional wellness is the ability for someone to understand, manage, and express their emotions over time. It also can effect your stress levels and how it changes over time.

Mental health on the other hand has to do with genetics, environment, trauma, and lifestyle choices. Conditions like anxiety disorders, depression, and bipolar disorder are classified as mental health issues too.

In conclusion Emotional wellness and mental health are essential for complete well-being, yet they signify different aspects of human experience. Emotional wellness specifically targets the regulation of emotions and coping mechanisms, while mental health includes a broader spectrum of psychological and social elements influencing a person’s overall performance.

Emotional wellness is included in mental health and is basically your overall well being. Someone who is emotionally well can look like just being happy with their life, and persevering through hard times. Mental health looks different for everyone, feeling numb or hopeless, smoking, drinking or using drugs more than usual, having very little energy or motivation, and excess worrying  and anger are some things that people struggle with in their daily life .  According to cdc.gov emotional wellness is having resilience, stronger relationships and higher self esteem. Mental health and emotional wellness refer to different aspects of a person's well being. Mental health is the overall psychological state of a person's mind, while emotional wellness is more focused on managing mood and emotions. sources: https://www.cdc.gov/emotional-well-being/about/index.html#:~:text=Improved%20mental%20health.,meaning%2C%20and%20purpose%20in%20life. https://www.samhsa.gov/mental-health

Mental health is the overall well-being of the mind as stated earlier it can include how emotionally stable you are but in addition, it can include things like conditions such as anxiety, depression, and insomnia

Emotional wellness and mental health are still vastly different because the aforementioned health conditions stated prior may cause hindrance or a complete inability to achieve emotional wellness but not everybody will experience these issues so it may only be an additional connection to those who do experience mental health conditions. A universal connection between emotional wellness and mental health that all people may experience  is how people may experience nonchronic health conditions such as sadness and anger these emotions are what may cause a decline in mental health due to the stress caused by it

How does an emotionally well person appear though? In my opinion, an emotionally well person would be someone who is able to just think before they act as it is important to be aware of how others may feel after you act to know whether or not you are doing wrong
