Topic > Amanda's Depression Analysis - 831
Mental wellbeing is more than just the absence of mental illness. Mental well-being includes positive affect, life satisfaction, psychological and social well-being. (Mitchell, 2011) Seligman postulates that happiness is determined by a combination of set intervals (50%), intentional activities (40%), and circumstances (10%). (Mitchell, 2011) This shows that Amanda can intentionally increase her happiness by up to 40%. Activities like keeping a gratitude journal can promote happiness. The habit could be encouraged again with motivational interviewing (Rollnick and Miller, 1995) and SMART goals
