Description

This episode highlights 5 critical “To-dos” this fall to maximize mental health self-care. The trend, especially among students, is when stress increases, self-care actions decrease in frequency leading to risk of increases in stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. Too often students lean on coping strategies - more booze, more weed, more meds - to cope with the emotional demands. We introduce 5 easy action steps to get started and maintain throughout the semester/school year. Send your questions to mentalhealthuniversirtpodcast@gmail.com
