This is Deep Dive: WFHB and Limestone Post Investigate where we look into issues regarding Health, Housing, and the Environment that directly impact residents of Monroe County. The month of May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we’re looking into the rising concern of declining teen mental health.
Content warning: this story mentions mental health struggles and suicide.
The American Psychiatric Association and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services both report nationwide rising rates of anxiety, depression, and social isolation.
Indiana teens are facing a record number of anxiety, depression and thoughts of suicide. Systems that are meant to support them – schools, families and healthcare providers – are struggling to keep up.
From the lingering effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, the widespread use of social media and a lack of adequate support, young people live in unprecedented times. To find out more on the mental health crisis many young people face, WFHB News spoke with counselors, concerned parents, and others working to combat mental health challenges among the youth today.
You’ve been listening to Deep Dive: WFHB and Limestone Post Investigate. We are going to keep diving into Teen Mental Health and looking at a local level of how the younger generations are doing here in Monroe County. To read the full article, written by Becky Hill; and photographed by Benedict Jones, visit LimestonePostMagazine.com.
Up next, “Bottom Five” on Better Beware – your weekly consumer-watchdog segment on WFHB. We turn to host and producer Richard Fish for more.
