The need for mental health services has never been greater. Whether a person is struggling with emotional or psychological challenges, mental health affects every aspect of our daily lives. It determines how you respond to stressful situations and how you feel about something or someone. We deal with mental health through all stages of life. That’s why Bluestem Health in Lincoln, Nebraska is making it a priority to ensure that mental health services are accessible to anyone in the Lincoln community.

It can increase your risk for having chronic health problems, such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Having a chronic health condition can increase your risk for mental health problems.
There is not one single cause of most mental illnesses. The more risk factors a person has, the more likely they may develop a mental health condition. Factors that can contribute to mental health problems include:
