1. Meeting Life Challenges: Stress and Well-being

Life inevitably presents challenges, and how individuals cope with stress significantly impacts their well-being. Stress can arise from various sources, including work, relationships, and major life events. Psychology explores different coping mechanisms, resilience factors, and the importance of positive psychological states like happiness, optimism, and self-efficacy in maintaining mental health and overall well-being.

2. Psychological Disorders

Psychological disorders are patterns of behavioral or psychological symptoms that cause significant personal distress or impair the ability to function in daily life. These disorders can affect emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Common categories include anxiety disorders, mood disorders, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and personality disorders. Understanding their causes, symptoms, and impact is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

3. Therapeutic Approaches and Rehabilitation

Addressing psychological disorders involves various therapeutic approaches. These include psychotherapy (talk therapy), biomedical therapies (medication), and community-based interventions. Rehabilitation programs aim to help individuals with psychological disorders regain functional skills and reintegrate into society. The goal is to improve quality of life and promote recovery and well-being.
