⁃ Anxiety Disorders(GAD, worry & fear, panic, PTSD)
⁃ Mood Disorders(depression, bipolar, substance abuse)

In this episode, we culminate our May Mental Health Month series as we talk about some immediate ways to calm ourselves or others in those moments of strong attack or onset- some natural ways & of course spiritual ways.

We also talk about having a plan for getting help in moments when things aren’t easy to communicate- A Crisis Plan.
