Formed in 1867, the town of Long Branch, New Jersey started out as a beach resort town and it still is, with Pier Village, Long Branch Beach, Asbury Park, and the Seven Presidents Oceanfront Park. In addition, it is the birthplace of the legendary rock n roll singer, Bruce Springsteen, author Norman Mailer, and several MLB and NFL superstars. It was also the setting for parts of the hit series, “The Sopranos.”
The beach is a great place to relax on a sunny day, whether you like to swim, boat, fish, or just soak up the sun. However, sometimes you may not feel like going to the beach or doing anything else for that matter. If you have been having these feelings for more than two weeks, you should contact a mental health professional. There are quite a few committed professionals in Long Branch who can help you right now.
