Mental Health: Self Check" is a detailed exploration of mental health and wellness, structured across nine chapters. The book begins by establishing that mental health encompasses emotional, psychological, social, and cognitive wellbeing, affecting everything from daily functioning to long-term life satisfaction.

The book emphasizes that these traits can be developed and strengthened over time. It then transitions into discussing warning signs of mental health problems, providing readers with concrete indicators that professional help might be needed.

Central chapters focus on practical strategies for maintaining positive mental health, including stress management, mindfulness practices, and the importance of routine. The book dedicates significant attention to resilience-building, offering specific techniques to develop this crucial skill. It also explores the vital role of relationships in mental health, covering family, romantic, work, and social connections.

The latter portion of the book addresses professional help, breaking down different types of mental health practitioners, therapy approaches, and when to seek assistance. It works to destigmatize mental health treatment and emphasizes that seeking help is a sign of strength.

The book concludes with the author's personal experiences with depression and anxiety, using his journey to illustrate that recovery is possible with proper support and treatment. Throughout, the text maintains that mental health is an ongoing journey rather than a destination, requiring consistent attention and care while emphasizing that small, consistent steps can lead to significant improvements in mental wellbeing.
