Choose People who are good for your Mental Health
If you enjoy good mental health, it could be partly due to the people who surround you - along with the thoughts and values you sleep with every day.
People who enjoy good mental health experience positive emotions like happiness, love, joy, and compassion, remain satisfied in life, and have more resilience in general. Here are signs that someone is good for your mental health.
1. THEY RESPECT YOUR PERSONAL BOUNDARIES
Setting boundaries ensures that relationships can be mutually respectful, appropriate, and caring between two individuals. Personal boundaries are essential because they set the basic guidelines of how you wish to be treated. If a person is comfortable with your boundaries, it's a sign that they are good for your mental health and respect you.
2. YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE AND SAFE AROUND THEM
Feeling safe and comfortable with a person is essential. Unless you feel safe and comfortable, you will be unable to share any part of your life with them easily. Things with them will seem difficult.
3. THEY SUPPORT YOUR DREAMS AND UPLIFT YOU
Supporting a dream is a huge step toward building relationships. Relationships can be of all types as friends, father-son, colleagues, and so on. Understanding somebody's perspective in life and trying your best to be part of their life is a huge step indeed.
How people react toward you also shows how you contribute to their holistic growth and development.
Being intentional about kindness gives us a chance to practice the activities that will turn kindness into a habit — anywhere and everywhere we go.
