As the coronavirus pandemic was spreading in March 2020, the American Psychiatric Association did a national poll showing that 36 percent of Americans felt that the coro...navirus was having a serious impact on their mental health; 24 percent had trouble concentrating on things other than their pandemic worries; 19 percent had trouble sleeping; and 12 percent were fighting more with their partners or loved ones. In this webinar, we will discuss how health and existential threats from pandemics impact mental health, how age affects our response, and how prevailing over such traumatic experiences can boost psychological immunity and resilience."
