We investigated the relationship between mental health, creative thought, and optimism. Sixty-six young adults, aged between 18 and 30, completed measures of creativity (TCT-DP), dispositional optimism (LOT-R), mental health (DASS-21) and negative emotional states (DASS-21). Analyses indicated moderate positive correlations between creative thinking, mental health, and optimism. In addition, optimism was found to be negatively associated with the negative emotional states of depression and anxiety, however not with stress. No statistically significant correlation was found between creativity and the negative emotional states of depression, anxiety, and stress. The results suggest that mentally healthy individuals have the essential tools for coping with stressful situations and maintaining a positive outlook on life. This type of effective stress management requires the individual to remain flexible and creative at all times. The findings represent an important contribution for understanding the benefits of maintaining, or fostering, creative thinking, mental health, and optimism.
