HIM 2023 Fri AM Online Elective 3: Managing Anxiety & Depression in a Stressful World • Matt Stanford

In our post-pandemic world, anxiety and depression have risen to unprecedented levels in both children and adults. Social isolation, loneliness, fear of infection, suffering and death for oneself and for loved ones, grief after loss, and financial worries have all been cited as stressors responsible for this dramatic increase in psychological distress. In this presentation, Dr. Stanford will explain how to recognize the signs and symptoms of anxiety and depression in yourself and others. He’ll provide effective coping strategies for dealing with external stressors. And he will discuss the role of faith as both a preventative factor and a foundation for healing.
