Obesity and Mental Health
Obesity and mental health are closely interconnected, with each influencing the other in significant ways. Excess weight can contribute to psychological distress, including anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, while mental health challenges may lead to unhealthy eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle. Stress and emotional eating often exacerbate weight gain, creating a vicious cycle. Additionally, societal stigma around obesity can further impact mental well-being. Addressing both physical and emotional aspects through a holistic approach, including therapy, lifestyle modifications, and medical support, is crucial for effective management.
