12 The Mental Health Benefits of Art

Perhaps the most important way that photography can help with your mental health is as a form of self-expression. Try to think of ways that you can express how you are feeling and what your experiences are through your photography. You can use self-portraits with props to truly get to the heart of your struggles through your art. Even if you are not feeling up to setting up lavish photography scenes, you can simply keep a photo journal of your everyday life and reflect back on it.
