More older adults are getting help for substance use disorders, that the rate for young people has stayed about the same, but for older adults it's gone in.
Ever wondered what's buzzing in the world of addiction and mental health this April? Jon Cohan and Abby Dean are back with another thought-provoking episode of 'The Right Mind Media Podcast'. This time, they kick things off by diving into recent research from the University of Connecticut, which highlights a worrying rise in substance use disorder among older adults. It's a trend that's catching many by surprise, and Jon and Abby break down what it means for families and communities.
The conversation then shifts to the booming world of telehealth. With companies like Cerebral making mental health services more accessible than ever, the hosts explore the benefits and potential pitfalls of this digital shift. They also touch on how the stigma around mental health is slowly eroding, thanks in part to savvy marketing and the growing acceptance of seeking help. But it's not all rosy. Jon and Abby tackle the controversial topic of overprescribing medication to teens.
Is it always the best solution? They share their thoughts on why a one-size-fits-all approach might not work, especially when it comes to ADHD and hyperactivity diagnoses in children. To wrap things up, the duo discusses how seasonal changes can spark creativity. Whether you're feeling inspired by spring blooms or winter's quiet, there's something here for everyone. So if you're looking to stay informed and get some fresh perspectives on addiction and mental health, this episode is a must-listen.
Jon and Abby's engaging style and deep insights make complex issues feel relatable and manageable.
