3rd Annual Mental Health Symposium

This inventory is for assessing your personal self-care practices. Please assign a value to each trait listed below according to how often you take care of yourself in these ways. When you are done, reflect upon the sections in which you scored the lowest and how you could improve your self care practices. Don’t forget to reflect upon the highest scoring sections and acknowledge where you have succeeded!

The Los Angeles Department of Mental Health presents apps, listed in the linked flyer, for your consideration. They provide a quick guide of resources available to promote wellbeing in simple daily activities.

You may find these apps to be useful for exercise, nutrition, education, emotional health, relaxation and practicing mindfulness. We’ve made things simple so you don’t have to sort through 100s of available apps to improve your wellbeing. These are an initial set of apps based on input received from the community. 

The Teen Line hotline provides a safe, non-judgmental space for youth to talk about their worries with someone their age who 'gets it'. The hotline is staffed by highly trained teens and supervised by mental health professionals and is OPEN from 6-9PM every evening. Text 'TEEN' to 839863 or email our hotline. We also offer message boards for teens to talk to other teens, including anxiety around the Covid-19 virus, as well as tips for coping skills from teens on all of our social media platforms (Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook, etc)

We also provide support resources for parents on our website at www.teenlineonline.org. We recently hosted a Facebook Live event for parents on Teen Line's Facebook page (@teenlineonline) to learn how they can support and help their kids navigate this difficult time.
