so what is an example of a mental health continuum?

[โ€“] Creddit@lemmy.world 5 points 23 hours ago

Emotions are each examples of a continuum. You can be any level of sad or happy or angry, etc.

I'm not sure the distinction of spectrum from continuum is useful for understanding the world though. It's just conversationally helpful.

Perhaps everything is a continuum but we just manufacture a spectrum so we can classify people for our own ease of conversation.
