A book that is sure to be educational, insightful and it has the potential to inspire and motivate behavioral change. Helping to educate parents and students about mental health disorders and explaining WHY seeking help is so important. Today, more than ever before, families are experiencing crises as their children suffer from many mental health disorders, mostly undiagnosed. Adolescents find themselves exhibiting destructive behavior due to the amount of anxiety and stress they experience. Children are at-risk of falling into depression, experiencing panic attacks, and having suicidal thoughts. Much is written about how environmental factors like peer pressure, low self-esteem, bullying, physical and sexual abuse, sexuality, poor family structure, and homelessness contribute to adolescents' poor mental health. This book will help educate and enlighten parents about the dangers of undiagnosed mental health disorders, point out early warning signs, and give strategies that will help parents manage this debilitating behavior.
