Feeling Pressure

An increase of youth seem to be suffering anxiety and depression ever since the "Great Depression" in the 1930s.  Why?  What has happened to change how we are all able to cope with stress and disappointment?  Has stress increased?   It is my observation that modern life is not good for mental health.  80 years… Continue reading Feeling Pressure
