in a way that relates to the mind or mental processes
From Latin 'mentalis', from 'mens' meaning 'mind'
The Latin root 'mens' gave us mental, mention, and even demented - all connected to the mind, whether healthy thinking or talking about thoughts!
Mental health discourse historically gendered women as emotionally unstable ('hysteria'). Modern usage often unconsciously perpetuates masculine=rational, feminine=emotional binaries in healthcare contexts.
Use precise descriptors (anxious, depressed, focused) rather than broad 'mental' framings. Avoid as shorthand for cognitive capability.
