It’s often hard to know if you need you need help, it’s why we go to a doctor for a checkup - it’s equally important to focus on your mental health as your physical health.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 7y agoI would say you shouldn't go to a doctor either unless you actually need treatment for something.
- tomhoward 7y agoYet there are all kinds of things that people do while they’re well in order to stay well - regular exercise, good diet, adequate sleep etc. And routine checks on basic indicators like blood pressure and cholesterol are part of conventional health advice, particularly as people age, in order to identify and respond to problems early, before they become much more severe and difficult to treat. Equivalent preemptive/preventative treatment for mental health is less understood/available.
