Make your mental health a priority

Feeling overwhelmed or stressed? That’s okay. You’re not alone. Your Moda Health benefits connect you with the care and support you need quickly and easily.

Right now, it's more important than ever to take care of our mental health. Did you know that 1 in 5 adults in the United States experience mental illness1 in any given year? That's a lot of people! And with everything going on in the world, it's understandable that many of us are feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or anxious.

But here's the thing: taking care of our mental health is just as important as taking care of our physical health. When we take care of our mental health, we feel happier, more relaxed, and better able to handle whatever life throws our way.

Unfortunately, many people don't get the help they need when it comes to mental health. In fact, only about half of adults with mental illness receive treatment. That's why it's so important to talk about mental health, to reach out for help if we need it, and to support others who may be struggling.
