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 ahealthy person would need others for
companionship. A family history of mental illnesscould relate to the biologic makeup
of an individual, which may have a negative impacton 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.
