We sit down with Marissa Caudill, a psychiatrist specializing in child, adolescent, and adult mental health, to explore the findings from the U.S. Surgeon General’s advisory “Parents Under Pressure.” We discuss the skyrocketing levels of stress among parents, the balancing act of caregiving, financial struggles, and the mental health toll on both parents and children. Marissa shares her insights on how physicians can support parents, foster gratitude, and advocate for systemic changes that benefit caregivers.
