The festive season, while often associated with joy and merriment, can also bring about increased stress and anxiety, particularly among teenagers and young adults. We will discuss triggers and signs of stress and anxiety in young people during this period. It is crucial to understand the distinction between temporary holiday stress and potentially more severe mental health issues.

Understanding and addressing these feelings can create a more meaningful and joyful holiday experience for our youth. This approach fosters mental well-being and equips them with skills and habits to benefit them.     About James McLamb:   🎙 Host of the Generation Youth Podcast 📚 Bestselling Author of 'Tomorrow's Youth' 🌟 Founder & CEO of Generation Youth Meet James McLamb, the dynamic voice behind the Generation Youth Podcast—a platform passionately committed to molding the next generation into confident, compassionate, and empowered leaders.
