Interrelatedness of Health Dimensions

Example

An individual is affected physically if food and shelter are not fully satisfied. This person will also be affected
emotionally as she/he may feel inadequate, insecure, and unsafe. And how will this affect the mental health of the person?
Anxiety may develop when a person is worrying about his/her condition. Relationship with family, friends, and with
others may suffer also when a person is not contented and his/her longing for love and affection is not met. When the
physical, mental, emotional, and social needs are not satisfied, a person may resort to unethical behavior to satisfy his/her
basic needs.
