Youth Radio Podcast: College and depression

Anyone who has been diagnosed with mental health problems knows: depression can flare up under stress – and the academic pressures that build up in the months before college applications contribute to this stress, along with a deeper fear of not being accepted. "How are you supposed to go in to school every day, and do the work and act like everything is ok when you feel like everything is falling apart inside?" A high school senior talks about how her depression has affected the process of applying to college, on this episode of the Youth Radio Podcast.
