Aging Adults

Overview

Depression and anxiety affect people of all ages worldwide. People want to believe that senior citizens have more life experiences that make them better able to deal with stress and should handle things better, but in actuality, changes leave them more vulnerable to mental health struggles.

• Social isolation
• Physical inactivity/limitations
• Poor nutrition/weight loss
• Increased irritability
• Heightened sense of fears
• Loneliness/not feeling needed or loved
