COVID-19 and Your Mental Health

The COVID-19 pandemic is a worrisome time and has brought many changes to how you live your life and an overwhelming feeling of uncertainty about when this will end and how bad things might get. Are you feeling stressed and exhausted? This is normal given what we are going through. It is very important that we take care of ourselves both mentally and physically during this time which can help us take charge of our own lives.

Managing Anxiety and Depression

Do you feel sad, hopeless, or worried or have you lost interest in activities you would normally enjoy?  Sadness and worry are normal human emotions but depression and anxiety are not. These may require treatment to overcome and shouldn’t be ignored.

This session will help participants to distinguish between depression, anxiety and normal human emotional experiences, and will provide strategies for coping with these feelings.
