Opinion: Mental health is misunderstood

(12/13/24 1:00pm)

Often, mental health care providers will recommend self-care practices, including journaling, meditation, or participating in hobbies as a way to curb stress and anxiety, or prevent burnout. However, for many people, “self-care,” as it is widely understood, often fails to fully support their psychological needs.
