Your Health Comes First

Make Your Health A Priority

Don’t wait until your later years in life to start caring about your health; start caring today! Lifelong habits are easier to develop and maintain from a younger age. Many people don’t care about their physical or mental health because they assume that they are or will remain healthy. That is the wrong mindset to have.

But if you will ever experience a first panic attack, heart attack or brain attack without previously caring about your health, you will be in more shock shortly thereafter. The key is to live a life without surprises regarding your physical and mental health; sometimes it’s possible while sometimes random events occur.

But there is a higher chance of random events occurring when you don’t take your health into consideration. Just because you are young does not mean that you are healthy; your mind and body may still be in the process of becoming damaged. And just because you are young does not mean that you can use drugs without worrying about their damaging effects.

Damage has been done to your body since you were a child; it’s called living life. But accelerated damage is done when you don’t eat healthy, do not exercise, consume drugs and alcohol and smoke cigarettes. Why take a chance in life and wake up one day with a mental or physical condition, when you could have avoided them by paying a little more attention to your lifestyle?

On a positive note, medical and psychiatric research are advancing: new treatments are being developed and more information is being discovered regarding the pathophysiology of diseases. But you cannot bank on the research, expecting to be in good hands. You never know what mental illness or physical disorder you may experience in the future.

At the end of the day, it’s your body and mind. It’s you who has to defeat the illness!
