What are the proposed mental health standards including

Psychological health standards usually include emotional stability, clear self-awareness, good social adaptation, harmonious interpersonal relationships, and normal ability to cope with stress. These standards help evaluate whether an individual's psychological state is at a healthy level.

1. Emotional stability

Emotional stability refers to an individual's ability to maintain a relatively stable emotional state without excessive fluctuations caused by external stimuli. People with mental health are usually able to regulate their emotions reasonably and will not fall into negative emotions for a long time when encountering setbacks. Emotionally stable individuals are able to express their emotions in appropriate ways without experiencing emotional instability or long-term depression. Emotional regulation ability is one of the important indicators of mental health, which can be improved through psychological counseling or emotional management training.

2. Clear self-awareness

Clear self-awareness means that individuals can objectively recognize their strengths and weaknesses, and have a reasonable evaluation of their abilities. People with mental health are not overly insecure or arrogant, and can establish a realistic self-image. Clear self-awareness helps individuals make appropriate life choices and avoid decision-making errors caused by cognitive biases. Self cognitive ability can be cultivated and enhanced through self reflection, psychological assessment, and other methods.

3. Good social adaptation

Good social adaptation refers to an individual's ability to adjust their behavior and attitude according to environmental changes. Mentally healthy individuals are able to adapt to different social environments, abide by social norms, and maintain individual independence. Good social adaptability is reflected in work, study, and life, and can cope with various social role requirements. Social adaptability can be enhanced through social training and environmental adaptation exercises.

4. Harmonious interpersonal relationships

Harmonious interpersonal relationships refer to an individual's ability to establish and maintain healthy relationships with others. Mentally healthy individuals typically possess excellent communication skills, able to express their own needs while respecting the feelings of others. Harmonious interpersonal relationships help to gain social support and alleviate psychological stress. Interpersonal relationship issues can be improved through learning communication skills and training in conflict resolution.

5. Stress coping ability

Stress coping ability refers to an individual's ability to adopt effective coping strategies when facing life pressures. People with mental health can identify sources of stress, use appropriate methods to relieve stress, and will not experience physical and mental disorders due to stress. Good stress management skills can help prevent the occurrence of psychological problems. The ability to cope with stress can be improved through relaxation training, time management, and problem-solving skills.

Maintaining mental health requires a multi-faceted approach. It is recommended to conduct regular self psychological assessments and cultivate a healthy lifestyle, including regular sleep, balanced diet, and moderate exercise. When persistent psychological distress occurs, professional psychological counseling or treatment should be sought in a timely manner. Establishing a good social support system and maintaining communication with family and friends can also help maintain mental health. Pay attention to identifying early signs of psychological problems, such as persistent low mood, sleep disorders, or social withdrawal, and take timely intervention measures.
