Conclusion

       Throughout the research I found, I was able to discover more about Vincent Van Gogh than I expected I would find. Vincent Van Gogh had a very tragic life, his career as an artist was short-lived, lasting only 10 years. He struggle with mental illness, rejection, poverty, and depression. He painted throughout his life because it was the one thing that helped him feel sane. He was the artist who cut off his ear, why? Due to his illness and a disagreement; a fight with his friend and artist Gauguin, who Van Gogh came at with a razor but ended up cutting his own ear. Based on all of this, my question changed from why did Vincent Van Gogh cut of his ear to who was Vincent Van Gogh as a person, it truly amazed me that behind all the simple, yet beautiful paintings created was from him, even in the state that his mind was in. This is important because it really shows that there is more than what meets the eye. I believe everyone should hear about this as we all struggle with something most of our life, and this man although dealing with mental illness, that did not stop him from what he loved and what he believed to be his calling.

Conclusion

            One thing I learned through these documents is that mental health in college students is very important because it causes many effects one example can be by affecting how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make healthy choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. I believe that it’s important that parents  show love to their adolescents because staying connected can enhance mental wellness. College students should have to take their own responsibilities in a certain time because by growing it is important to learn how to be independent and how to move on in their own steps and in the future this will help them a lot on how to deal with anxiety.
