Mentally Healthy Nation is the voice of the American Psychiatric Association Foundation. This podcast features candid conversations with psychiatrists and other experts about various aspects of mental health that impact our community, where we live, learn, work, worship, and play. In each episode, we hope to educate the public and provide tangible solutions for addressing our mental health crisis.
We wanted to do something different to start the new year. Instead of a typical episode, we're encouraging you to use this time to take care of yourself and recharge. We will be back next month with another great guest. See you then!
