When to seek treatment for your child
Positive mental health for children and adolescents is vital in helping them become happy, well-adjusted adults. But there may be periods of their life where this needs to be nurtured.
Do they have long periods of sadness or depression, show inappropriate responses to situations, or have trouble controlling their emotions? Have they expressed or implied suicidal thoughts? How are their interactions with friends and family? Has a school counselor, friend’s parent, or relative expressed concern? Have they experienced significant trauma or grief? Has a doctor diagnosed a mental health condition?
For parents and caregivers of a distressed child, it can be difficult to know where to turn — and discouraging with the stigma often surrounding mental health. Yet, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, 1 in 6 U.S. youth aged 6-17 experience a mental health disorder each year. Your family is not alone. The sooner you seek support, the quicker your child and family can find treatment that works, and rebuild family harmony.
