MENTAL HEALTH
Money worries and financial instability can cause significant stress and anxiety for individuals and families.
Various factors, including job loss, unexpected expenses, and high debt levels, can cause financial instability. It can lead to many negative consequences, including difficulty paying bills on time, reduced access to credit, and strained relationships.
Seeking assistance from financial professionals or support groups can also help navigate these challenges.
