How do we balance our need to stay informed with our mental health? Checking out is not a healthy or safe (or values-aligned) option for most of us, but we can choose to interact with the news in a way that’s intentional.

There are lots of good reasons to get your COVID vaccine this year—and your mental health is on that list!

1. COVID infections can have a lingering impact on our brains *even following mild infections*. Post-COVID symptoms range from brain fog, increased irritability, memory and concentration issues, and changes in mood. This can happen to anyone, including young people with no previous health concerns or risk factors.

2. COVID can cause brain inflammation that's particularly dangerous to people with some psychiatric disorders, like bipolar and schizophrenia. In the US, people with mood and psychotic disorders are considered high risk!

3. Got ADHD? COVID can worsen existing symptoms of executive dysfunction. ADHDers are also considered high risk for complications.

4. COVID infections can take weeks to months to fully recover from, and long COVID can cause long-term, potentially permanent disability. It's hard (or impossible) to work, complete day-to-day tasks, and socially isolating—all of which can profoundly impact our mental health.

5. It's something positive you can do for yourself and your community! A lot of things in this world feel uncertain or scary at the moment, but getting vaccinated is one way you can proactively protect yourself and others. And that feels pretty great!
