House Calls: Real Docs, Real Talk is the American Heart Association's LIVE show where doctors provide real answers about your most pressing health concerns. In our After Show, we address our viewers incoming questions that we didn't have time to respond to during the show.

Coping with the pandemic is tough – for you and the people around you. This week we take a deeper- dive with psychiatrist Dr. Jon Lehrmann to discuss the mental and emotional challenges brought on as a result of Covid-19. We answer many of your questions in great detail, including: Why we need mental health maintenance. When is it time to see a doctor? How do I know if I’m depressed and need medication? How can I work through grief? What exactly is anxiety and why do I feel it?
