May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and Tri Valley Health System’s Senior Life Solutions raises awareness about mental health signs, symptoms, and risk factors and how to know when to seek help. Over the past couple of years, mental health has moved to the forefront for many. An increasing number of folks are beginning to see it for what it is: a vital component of your overall health and well-being, just as important as your physical health. At the same time, mental health conditions, resources, and conversations can still feel complicated and out of reach.
