  Denote the criteria for mental health:   1.  Awareness and feeling of continuity, constancy and identity of one's physical and mental "I".

  A bit of history   Health was not always thought of as something public. It is only with the consolidation of modern national states that populations come to be considered as something to be preserved. The growth of cities and the increase in populations living in the same spaces gave rise to concerns about epidemics, birth rates, mortality and the organization of cities so that people could live better. Health as a public good begins in 17th century Europe. The movement towards the institutionalization of health, as a concern of the State, gained even more strength in the 19th century, with the institutionalization of Hygiene in France, which was seen as part of medicine and public administration, which needed to keep the population healthy.   In Brazil, interventions on the health of the community gained strength during the Old Republic, as a strategy for cleaning up the circulation spaces of the coffee economy.
