Social adaptability is an internationally recognized primary standard of mental health. Overall health includes physical health and mental health, which are closely related, indispensable and inseparable. This is the essence of the concept of health. Many people think that physical health and mental health are two unrelated concepts. In fact, this is not correct.
In real life, mental health and physical health are interrelated and interactive, and mental health affects people's physical health all the time. If a person is withdrawn and psychologically depressed for a long time, it will affect the secretion of hormones and reduce people's resistance, and diseases will take advantage of it.
