Straight Talk With Sandra Reich

Do you ever feel like giving up because the outcome is fated anyway? Does someone you love seem to be stuck and given over to putting up with their circumstances – have they stopped looking for relief or change from their situation? We call this “learned helplessness”. Learned helplessness can have a profound impact on mental health and well-being – often manifesting in symptoms of depression, elevated stress levels, and less motivation to take care of their physical health. Tune in as Sandra and Straight Talk regular Georgia Dow talk about the steps you can take to address this type of thinking.
