Existential in humanism is something that is very close to even related to existing Islamic values, in existentialism it assumes that a person has the right to act and make any decisions, this is also in accordance with existing Islamic values which assume that a person's personality has the rights of each, while Allah is the God who wills. The existence of knowledge about mental health can help a person to be able to run his life well, one of which is to make it easier for someone to socialize with their environment, for example having a good socialization attitude, that is, if there are new people, we will easily adapt ourselves, if there is a problem.
