Key Takeaways

There are five dimensions to emotional health.
Self-esteem is confidence in your worth and ability.
Self-protection is the ability to share yourself without losing yourself.
Self-awareness is being able to identify what is happening underneath from your emotions to your thoughts.
Self-care is the ability to take care of your needs and ask for help when you need it.
Self-control means practicing healthy limits, restraining yourself, and enjoying good pleasures without getting out of hand.
“Medicators” are anything we use to feel relief internally. We can use these in excess to the point that they begin to control us.
