Mercy Health and Wellness issued the following announcement on July 24.
Dr. Angela Andrews, family medicine physician with Mercy Health Physician Partners recently spoke with FOX 17 about anxiety and depression among teens and how to help them deal with these emotions.
There’s no doubt that teens and college aged students are facing more anxiety and depression these days, and it's not just for one reason.
It ranges from everything like social isolation, to feelings of being let down from plans, to virtual learning and what school will look, even increased tensions on social media. Dr. Angela Andrews with Mercy Health Physician Partners says one big thing to help them through those emotions is helping them understand to be flexible. But, while embracing that it’s also important to still create structure in their lives and help them set realistic expectations.
