What I think about mental well-being is a state where I can relax after a period of stress or tension. During my study time, particularly during exams, I feel really stressed about my exams, how the questions will be, and what the exam conditions will be. After I come back home from the exam hall, I find myself in a state of mental well-being, which is a place where I can comfortably stay and relax sometimes. So I think this is the essence of mental well-being.
