April 13


Right. Today. Kind of Breathless.

Whoa.

We start Unit three - Mental Health and Stewardship. Yeah, weird mix, I know.

Start with this online quiz; after you've finished, write a short paragraph about an aspect of mental health that you've never thought about or have always thought about and want to learn more about.

Right. After that, take a look here, a link about Depression. No, don't poo-poo that topic. It's more serious than you think.

Then, do these questions:

Pg 178 Mental Heath questions

1.Define the term Anxiety - what is a positve result of it, what is a negative result of it?
2. What are two strategies to manage day to day anxiety?
3. What is depression?
4. Under what circumstances should a depressed person seek professional help?
5. How might being a volunteer help relieve mild depression?
6. What might drugs and alcohol be an answer, albeit a dangerous answer, to depression?
7. Create a chart with three columns; “Family”, “friends” and “School”. In each column, list how depression and or anxiety could affect your relationships.
