Anxiety and Depression


Anxiety and depression are the most common mental illnesses in the U.S., affecting 40 million adults. Due to the lack of any visible physical symptoms and the stigma, it is difficult to tell if someone is suffering from mental illness.

Lisa Pflaumer, executive director of Michael’s Giving H.A.N.D., discusses signs and symptoms of anxiety and depression. Michael’s Giving H.A.N.D. is a non-profit charitable organization, which was established by the Michael P. Donatucci Foundation, focused on helping teens, parents, counselors and teachers recognize and understand anxiety disorders and depression.
