Feedback:
Individual factors influencing mental health include biologic
makeup, autonomy, independence, self-esteem, capacity for
growth, vitality, ability to find meaning in life, emotional
resilience or hardiness, sense of belonging, reality orientation,
and coping or stress management abilities. Interpersonal
factors such as intimacy and a balance of separateness and
connectedness are both needed for good mental health, and
therefore a
healthy person would need others for companionship. A
family history of mental illness could relate to the biologic
makeup of an individual, which may have a negative impact
on an individual's mental health, as well as a negative impact
on an individual's interpersonal and socialñcultural factors of
health. Total self-reliance is not possible, and a positive
social/cultural factor is access to adequate resources.
