Mental health and physical health mmhh. This is what I can say mental health is what goes on in your mind, what you think and how you do things, how you relate to others, and so on and whereby physical health is the out ward of your body how flexible ar3 you, your weight your overall physical health. I think that’s what it’s all about but I will also read from others and see what they have to say |

I wouldn’t say there is much of a difference since most of the time those with physical health problems will also have mental health problems but not all the time. Some physical illnesses will disrupt that person’s mental capacity. People with any chronic physical disease tend to feel more psychological distress than do healthy people. Poor health brings an increased risk of depression. |

I don’t think that people are influenced by illness same way like animals are. We after all are conscious beings and able to prevail big problems, physical problems like pain, hunger, thirst, cold and excessive heat in better way than any animal. If what you say is correct this means if person has common cold one also having mental problem. That is completely incorrect. |

@Your Seldom You misunderstood what was said. A common cold can affect anyone. That is why I said “some” and not all illnesses. A chronic physical disease such as migraines, back pain, fibromyalgia is just a few that do affect mental illness in a person. |

@evilelf it really depend on person capability to overcome. Illness will affect work capability but not capability to cope and manage. I know people who are terminally ill of my family, never know people among them more kind and supportive. While one go crazy over headache other blessed can lift mountains living with cancer. Never underestimate. |
