A Correlation Between Resilience and Positive Mental Health

Abstract

Life is not always the way we want it to be. It is often like an adventurous roller coaster ride—sometimes in our favor and sometimes completely against us. To cope with situations and adapt to them, we need to build high resilience. Positive mental health and resilience are two sides of the same coin. If an individual has positive mental health or a positive outlook, they naturally develop high resilience. Conversely, an individual with low resilience is likely to experience poor mental health and may even face life-threatening disorders. In this article, we have shedded light on the correlation between resilience and positive mental health, the drawbacks of poor resilience, and the benefits of high resilience.
