Be sure to attend a free online film screening of the documentary, “Angst,” which raises awareness about anxiety. It will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 23. A panel discussion will follow the screening. Ned Johnson and Dr. William Stixrud, authors of “The Self-Driven Child,” will facilitate the discussion.
The film includes interviews with kids, teens, educators, experts, parents and a very special interview with competitive swimmer and Olympian Michael Phelps. The goal is to help people identify and understand the symptoms of anxiety and to encourage them to reach out for help.
The film will last about 45 minutes and is appropriate for those 10 years old and older.
