If you’re feeling stressed or nervous during these days of COVID-19, you’re not alone. Uncertainty and the sense of not being safe — not to mention physical distancing, round-the-clock news and empty grocery shelves — are stressful. What you’re feeling is common around the world. It's OK not to be OK.
Mental Health Awareness Month during May is a great time to reduce stigma by starting conversations and increasing understanding about mental illness with the Make It OK campaign and resources.
