How Much Anxiety Is Too Much and How Can Millennials Cope With The Struggle?

Being Stressed Is An Important Part Of Growth And Development

Dr. Karen Cassiday, the president-elect of the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, believes that stress is a part of growing. She says, “So many millennials have been raised with the idea that it’s bad to be stressed—that normal events, like final exams, someone not using the proper term for your sexual orientation, roommate issues, or breakups are all too stressful and can’t possibly be conceived of as anything other than the end of the world." The result is a generation of individuals who have never been made to determine how to get through hard times on their own.
