Over half of all Americans say money is currently negatively affecting their mental health, according to a Bankrate study.
When left unchecked, financial stress can lead to all kinds of negative health issues, including high blood pressure, a lowered immune system, overeating, and substance abuse.
At the same time, reducing high-interest debt and balancing the family budget can lower stress and be a boost to a person’s physical and mental health. The freedom a person feels when the weight of student loans and/or credit card debt is lightened can add up to real happiness.
