Mental Health in Rural Ontario: Insights from Yonah Budd

It takes A Bunch Of Years, I guess, to figure it all out, but listen, we're celebrating tonight because I'm hopeful that all of you that are out there, that have made this show so successful, because our success is predicated on your audience and your participation and enjoying us and listening to us and tuning in and such.
Ever wondered how the pandemic has affected mental health in rural areas? In this episode of 'Road to Recovery', Yonah Budd dives deep into this pressing issue. He starts by celebrating his show going national, but quickly shifts gears to tackle more serious topics. Yonah discusses the importance of addressing depression and anxiety, especially in children, and offers practical advice for parents on how to talk to their kids about suicide.
He is joined by Casandra Bryant, a PhD student in the rural studies program at the University of Guelph, who shares her research on the mental health impacts of COVID-19 in rural Ontario. The episode also features a sobering story about a man convicted of manslaughter related to a fentanyl overdose, shedding light on the opioid crisis. Yonah then explores how air pollution affects our brains and mental health.
Rachel Bromberg, co-founder of the Reach and Response Network, joins the conversation to discuss the mental health crisis in Canadian universities. This episode is packed with valuable insights and heartfelt discussions that aim to provide support and understanding for those struggling with mental health issues.
