This episode will tell you what to look for and most importantly, what you can do, if you find yourself struggling for any reason in the face of The Perfect Storm.
September is Suicide Prevention Month and we find ourselves in a world where our mental health is challenged in new and different ways. Dr. Elizabeth Cohen a/k/a The Divorce Doctor, is here to help us understand why cases are on the rise, what we need to look for and what we can do to help other or ourselves if we are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression or any other mental health challenge.
According to the U.S. Surgeon General, people going through divorce have a 30-40% increased likelihood of experiencing symptoms of depression and anxiety. Layer on top of that the fact that the number of divorces is reported to be up approximately 34% during COVID and that the current world we live in with COVID is resulting in up to a 3-fold increase in diagnoses of anxiety and depression according to a survey by John's Hopkins. Talk about THE PERFECT STORM! It is vitally important that we prioritize our mental health and that of others at this extremely vulnerable time and Dr. Elizabeth shares what to look for, what you can do and lets you know YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
