Stress and Depression in Children and Teenagers
by Vicky Maud
Children and teenagers are no different from the rest of us: when the pressure if on they too can suffer from stress and even depression. Frequent exams and assessments, pressure to fit in with their friends and family breakdown can all raise anxiety levels, not just in children but also in parents. If you are worried that your child may be unhappy, Vicky Maud will help you to understand what they are going through and offer your support. Where you suspect serious problems such as bullying, heavy drinking or drug abuse, she also advises on how to work with teachers, doctors and others to get your child the help they need.
Vicky Maud contributes advice columns to several magazines and newspapers. She is a parent, a journalist, a trained counsellor and a regular broadcaster.
