A person's physical and mental health is the result of social, environmental and life circumstances, as well as biological factors.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in general have much higher levels of stress and anxiety in their lives as a result of the trauma and grief they have experienced and continue to experience. Stress and anxiety are closely linked to physical and mental health disorders.
