Gen Z may be the “coolest generation,” but they’re also the most stressed and anxious. Instead of traditional therapy, they’re turning to mental health apps, tools like Headspace, Calm, and BetterHelp that fit perfectly into their digital-first lifestyle. 📱💭

    Love this! Even I have found myself wanting to use these apps!

    Apps are in cell phones, right? Cell phones cause stress and anxiety, right? Seems counter-intuitive. I'm not judging, but I'm guessing that adults IRL cause them more stress than a phone.

    I've heard of these apps but don't know any users. There were past concerns that one of them was overcharging for services and underpaying therapists.
