Additionally, we are pleased to announce that Georgia’s youth can now access GCAL’s services via text and chat through a new app called My GCAL, which became available for download in late January 2019.  Developed by Behavioral Health Link, the app will allow youth to call, text, or chat with GCAL 24/7/365. Help is in your pocket–just a click away. The caring professionals of GCAL are ready to help, and users can choose how they want to reach out.

Coping with Stress and Anxiety during a Pandemic

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic is unlike
anything most of us have experienced in healthcare.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, fear
and anxiety about a disease can be overwhelming
and cause strong emotions in adults and children.
However, coping with the stress and anxiety can
make you, your family and your community stronger.
You or a loved one may be suffering from stress or
anxiety if you’re experiencing any of the following
symptoms:
• Fear and worry about
you and/or your loved
ones health
• Changes in sleep or
eating patterns
• Difficulty sleeping or
concentrating
• Worsening of chronic
health problems
• Worsening of mental
health conditions
• Increased use of
alcohol, tobacco or
other drugs
