How is Mental Health different from Behavioral Health?
Mental Health is specific to our emotional, psychological, and cognitive well-being and includes mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia, as a few examples. Mental health focuses on the mind and its internal processes.
Behavioral health includes mental health and how specific behaviors affect our overall well-being. So, looking at our habits, lifestyles, and choices. Some behavioral health issues are substance abuse, eating disorders, and self-harm.
