You may have heard people talking about mental health. This is really important for all of us and means how you are feeling at any time. You may feel happy, excited, sad, worried or angry and all of these are completely normal!

Having good mental health does not mean that you will feel happy all of the time, things can happen to all of us that make us feel worried and sad too and this is OK. But if these thoughts or feelings are lasting for a long time or you feel as if you can't cope with them, it's time to get some help.
