"From 2016 to 2021, the use of mental health services by children ages 1 to 19 years old significantly increased, including a 20% increase in emergency room visits and a 61% increase in inpatient admissions."

COVID-19 may have been a driver for an increase in mental health concerns for children and teens, however studies show that mental health has been on the decline for some time.

There's been a lot of talk on mental health priorities this week, especially in regards to Simone Biles' decision to withdraw from the Olympic competitions, and a lot of the discussion stems from what some people view to be "responsibility." We'd like to talk about that.

Ms. Biles' decision was hard. No athlete, especially one at the top of their game, wants to sit on the bench, especially after months (or years!) of training. The choice to withdraw stems from a condition she, and many other gymnasts, have faced. It is referred to within the community as the "twisties," which drastically affects orientation when airborne.. In other words, by competing with this condition, she could have risked serious injury.

Not only that, but after she made what was very clearly one of the biggest, most difficult decisions of her life, she decided to speak outwardly and openly about everything. She expressed her very real fears for her physical health, and how she needed to prioritize her mental health for that reason. To us, that is the definition of responsibility. Imagine if the world could take her example to heart, and recognize that simple fact: mental health is physical health.

Simone Biles' choice this week to exit her Olympic event is a conversation on honesty, integrity and mental health. We applaud her very difficult decision, and we can't wait to see her return to the mat with renewed confidence and passion!

While summer vacations and beautiful weather are often great for soaking up the sun, the summer heat can actually be a driver for depression! Here are some things to keep an eye out for:

- Disrupted schedules or routines can make the season more difficult. This is especially prevalent for those with grade-school children.
- Body image issues tend to climb in the summer, as the warmer weather leads to less clothing worn. Pools, beaches, or any other social events end up getting avoided for the comforts of privacy.
- Heat, in general, can be oppressive! It can cause a decrease in home cooking (forcing one to order takeout or forgo food altogether), an increase in staying indoors (reducing natural vitamin D intake), and a decrease in physical activity.

What should you do?

- Get good sleep. Do your best to get the best amount of sleep that is right for your body, to keep you on track.
- Eat well. Summer is great for salads and fruits, and colder meals/snacks that are rich in vitamins and nutrients can improve the mood long-term.
- Exercise. Even if it's in an indoor gym, or in your air-conditioned living room, the physical activity will release endorphins that help in stabilizing moods.
- Get help. Find a therapist that works well with you, and works well with the issues you face. And consider additional treatment plans, such as TMS therapy. To learn more, visit http://www.tmsibi.com and contact us today!
