Online chats, podcasts, and other resources

Teenager Therapy
- This podcast made by five highschoolers Mark, Thomas, Kayla, Isaac and and Gael talk about the struggles of high school, sexuality, breakups, and so much more. Made in their bedroom they wanted to be genuine with the advice they give, their experiences and they wanted people who listen to their podcast to not feel alone. I have personally listened to this podcast and as a 16 year old sometimes find myself laughing along to their stories and I think a lot of people would agree when I say it's nice knowing so many other people have gone through the same thing you are. Some episodes I would recommend would be " Dealing With Anxiety/Depression","Body Image/Eating Issues/Bullying", and "Listen When You Feel Alone". Now they have over a hundred episodes uploaded, but I encourage you to give this podcast a try and maybe you'll find something like I did.

It tracks your meals, sets meal plans, finds what coping methods are best, and keeps your progress saved.
