Interventions for Mental Health Promotion and Prevention and Their Evidence<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
Therefore, policymakers and health practitioners must be sensitized about linkages between mental- and physical health to effectively implement various mental health promotive and preventive interventions, including in individuals with chronic physical illnesses (18). GMH research needs to include and center relevant stakeholders including people with lived experiences of mental illness (PWLE) as their perspectives play a valuable role in shaping interventions and policies for mental health 104, 105. It is possible that social media data could be used to supplement additional digital data, such as continuous monitoring using smartphone apps or smart watches, to generate a more comprehensive \u201cdigital phenotype\u201d to predict relapse and identify high-risk health behaviors among individuals living with mental illness (Torous et al. 2019). Recent studies have reported negative effects of social media use on mental health of young people, including social comparison pressure with others and greater feeling of social isolation after being rejected by others on social media (Rideout and Fox 2018).<\/p>\n
