Physical health

Physical health problems can significantly impact mental health in children and adolescents, and vice versa. Chronic illnesses, such as diabetes or asthma, are associated with higher rates of anxiety and depression in youth. Promoting overall wellness through nutrition, exercise, and sleep is important for both physical and mental health in young people.
