Mental Health Awareness Month: Managing Stress and Anxiety


Did you know approximately 1 in 9 adults in the U.S. regularly have feelings of worry, nervousness and anxiety? Feeling anxiety and stress is not uncommon, but when they seem too overwhelming, think about reaching out for help.

Consider these questions – Is stress and anxiety:

  • Interfering with everyday life?
  • Causing you to avoid doing everyday things?
  • Ever present in your daily life?

If you answered “yes” to one or more of these questions, there are tools and resources available to help.
