How might you reconise signs of mental and physical abuse and how would you react to them?
It depends... Is it yourself or someone else you are referring to? Physical abuse can be very apparent. Mental abuse on the other hand is harder to recognize. It's all in how it effects you personally. You can get into a verbal fight with someone and if there words effect you in such a manner where emotional pain or suffering occurs, without and real motive or backing behind it,it is definitely a sign of mental abuse.

hi! your question was very brief, so heres my answer to what i think you mean. there are 3 determinants of health; mental (used to be known as emotional), physical and social. mental health, according to WHO (world health organisation) states "state of wellbeing in which the individual realises his or her own abilities, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productivly and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to his or her community" physical health relates to the efficient functioning of the body and its systems, and includes the physical capacity to perform tasks and physical fitness. social health is being able to interact with others and participate in the community in both an independent and cooperative way. hope this answers your question!
