Mental Health
Mental health means a person's psychological, emotional, and social well-being. It includes how people respond to challenges and successes in life.
Mental health impacts how people think, feel, and act. It can affect how well people respond to stress and can include disorders like anxiety and depression. It can change over time.
Autistic people and parents are more likely to struggle with mental health, often because there are fewer appropriate supports available. To take care of mental health, people can ask their doctor for support in finding appropriate supports, like connecting with other people including through therapy.
