What Is Mental Health?

Mental health refers to a person's well-being—emotional, psychological and social—including how they handle stress, relate to others, make decisions and cope with life's challenges.

Good mental health is key for realizing one’s potential, working productively and making meaningful contributions to the community.

Bell supports various mental health organizations across the country and has its own initiative, Bell Let’s Talk, aimed at reducing mental health stigma and promoting open dialogue.
Bell Let’s Talk Day is Bell’s annual day dedicated to raising mental health awareness. The company donates funds to mental health initiatives based on interactions such as texts and social media posts using the hashtag #BellLetsTalk.
More information about Bell Let's Talk can be found in the Resources section.

Mental health is a dynamic and individualized aspect of everyone’s well-being. What works for one person may not work for another. 

It is essential to explore and find strategies fitting your unique needs and preferences. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health issues, seek professional help for proper assessment and support or call your local mental health and suicide prevention hotline.
