Challenges related to mental health can happen at any time, at any point in life. Talking to a professional may help.
Anxiety
Everyone feels nervous or anxious occasionally. If these emotions begin to affect your daily life, it could be time to reach out for help.
Depression
Feeling down and thoughts of despair are just two things that can trigger depression. But there are ways to cope and feel better, such as counseling, medication and more.
Substance Use Disorder
Drugs, alcohol and medications often affect your ability to control the way you think and feel, and could even lead to addiction. But they are treatable.
