Leitchfield plays host to several county and state events throughout the year, including the Twin Lakes National Fiddler Championship. Listening to a good fiddler is often going to make you feel very upbeat and happy. However, if fiddling and other activities are no longer providing you with enjoyment it can be a sign that you have mental health issues.
If you are experiencing such mental health awareness, you should immediately seek help before it becomes a serious problem. Leitchfield-area counselors are available for this type of assistance. Contact a confidential and licensed therapist today.
