Happy olidays and Happy New Year from the Anne Arundel County Mental Health Agency

December 2024

The holiday season is here, and while it can bring joy, it can also bring stress, There are ways we can take care of ourselves during this season, and we encourage you to find strategies for mental health as we move toward the new year. With temperatures beginning to drop, and the end of daylight savings time, many of us begin to experience sadness, lack of energy, and trouble sleeping. These are all signs of "Winter Blues". Some of us experience more severe symptoms, and may withdraw or experience feelings of hopelessness or anxiety. It is important to understand the difference between Winter Blues and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), and to seek help when needed.

We wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season. Whether or not you celebrate, during this busy season, remember to take practice self-care, connect with loved ones, and spend time on the things that matter most.

If you are in crisis and need help, our Warmline is open 24/7 at 410-768-5522.
