Resilience is a way to combat stress. Resilience has many components and meanings. “The key elements of resilience by Professor M.E.P. Seligman with the U.S. Army includes physical, emotional, social, family and spiritual elements” (Harrington, 2012).
These elements are the same keys to fighting stress, depression and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Mental health is a daily struggle for many people. Overcoming mental illness is very frustrating for me. I suffer with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder daily. Some days I can function without any problems. My mind is always at work, always thinking and stressing about something. Mental illness is silent in most but possible deadly. Mental illness is usually something not seen.
