What is emotional health anyway? A useful definition of emotional health is the ability to express all emotions appropriately. People who have this ability to express their emotions appropriately are surely mentally healthy. Being emotionally stuck is often the best indicator of the current state of emotional health. I might be stuck in depression or stress, stuck in anger at my favorite targets, stuck in obsessive fears, or stuck in perpetual guilt or shame. Of course using this type of indicator of emotional health suggests that many of us lack emotional health some or much of the time.
