Difficultly Forming Relationships
Trouble with friends? Mental health issues, such as depression or anxiety, can lead to social withdrawal and isolation, making it difficult for individuals to engage in and form meaningful relationships.
Trouble Regulating Emotions
Outbursts, tantrums, and more? Individuals with a history of trauma or adverse experiences may struggle with regulating emotions due to the lingering impact of past events on their mental well-being.
Withdrawal from Social Activities
Is your child pulling away? Mental health challenges, such as depression or social anxiety, may lead to withdrawal from social activities, including interactions with peers and engagement in class discussions, impacting overall academic experience.
Decline in Academic Performance
Falling grades? Emotional well-being influences a student's motivation, engagement, and overall attitude toward learning. Mental health struggles may lead to feelings of apathy or disinterest in academics.
Changes in Sleep Patterns
Up all night? Depression is often associated with changes in sleep, such as insomnia or oversleeping. Sleep disturbances can be both a symptom and a contributing factor to the severity of depressive symptoms.
Self Harming Behaviors
