Mental Health Check Damen Eckroth

Today I bid farewell to Mental Health Check. Creating this podcast was an informative and overall positive experience for me, and I truly hope that it was something that helped people, even if only some small way. I intend to continue advocating for mental health conditions for the rest of my life, though this will be the last I shall do so through this format, at least for the foreseeable future.
Thank you for listening, and I hope only the best for you.

I uploaded the first episode of MHC on July 16, 2019, and as we reach the one year anniversary of this show, I have also come to the conclusion that we should reach the end as well. Due to the current climate of the world, as well as my own personal uncertainties and feelings, I have decided that this shall be the penultimate episode of MHC. Today I touch on why, as well as on how mental health can affect a person's passions and lead to burnout.

Racial discrimination is a very serious societal issue that has a very serious impact on mental health, as well as many other aspects of life. With recent events, I decided to touch on this issue in at least a limited capacity.

Today I return to the topic of family, and how divorce, while ultimately a beneficial tool, can have a great deal of adverse effects on people and their mental health.

It's finals season here in the US, and with that comes a great deal of stress, especially in our current environment. Today, I just want to recommend that everyone tries to take it easy on themselves, and remember that it's okay to take breaks when things are getting a little overwhelming.

Today I attempt to touch on ways to handle prolonged contact with members of a household in times of self isolation.
