very important topic, solid contribution

This topic is critical today - anxiety and depression and a host of other mental health challenges are skyrocketing. In the last 3 years the number of teens afflicted with this array of challenges has more than quadrupled (NIH national health report 2023). Any and all help we can give this population is SO important. My favorite chapters were: Your Faith: Let God Hear You, Impacts of Negativity, Understanding Intrusive Thoughts, and Bad Acquaintances. The chapter lengths were good, but I did not like the narrator particularly.... how do young people respond to the narrator? I am a grandma and listened to this before giving to my niece whose parents are divorcing. I recommend.
