"January’s arrival of holiday shopping bills, missed loved ones, less sunlight and dreary winter weather can culminate in a period when moods dip and mental health takes a hit. To help beat the blues this Blue Monday, Dr. Courtney, the creator behind the YouTube channel The Truth Doctor Show, shares five simple tips to help you make these feelings a thing of the past.

Editorial note by Dr. Jessica DiVento, a licensed clinical psychologist, serving as Global Head of Mental Health at YouTube:

Each January, the arrival of Blue Monday can be a reminder to reflect on the critical importance of being aware of and investing in your mental health. On Google, searches on “how to beat the winter blues” more than doubled in the US over the last week, while search interest in “how to be happy again” have nearly tripled. Knowing that people come to YouTube to connect and gain valuable insight from the community and its creators, we are committed to making high quality health information accessible to everyone. Sharing resources through video is a cornerstone of the platform and by connecting our community of viewers to qualified experts, we believe that complex topics, like mental health, can be broken down into content that is both impactful and easy to understand. In today’s blog post, we will hear from one of our health creators, Dr. Courtney Tracy, a licensed clinical social worker and a doctor of clinical psychology and creator behind The Truth Doctor Show, on how to put the blues around Blue Monday behind you.

Every year during this time, I speak with both clients and members of my YouTube community who are feeling down and are seeking support and guidance. Just as I explain to them and now you today, while the feelings associated with this time of the year can be troublesome, they can often be addressed and helped.

Spending time with the people you care about may be just the boost you need. Keep it simple: perhaps it’s a half hour video call on Sunday nights or a quick message to the family group text. Or maybe it’s as easy as choosing a TV show to watch to discuss with friends later. Joy and connection aren’t restricted to the end of the year, even if the major holidays are!

For those looking for online solutions, YouTube Health has introduced new features to help connect you with information from authoritative sources and I’m very excited to be a part of it. Now, when searching for a mental health related topic, you will see health source information panels and health content shelves that highlight videos from these sources, so people can more easily navigate and evaluate health information online."
