Description
There are more therapist today than ever before in history. And yet, the number of kids being diagnosed with mental health conditions has skyrocketed. Is the number of children with faulty brain chemistry really on the rise or are we seeing the side effects of over labeling and overmedicating today's youth?
As a parent, you are expected to make health and wellness decisions on your child's behalf. Which can be overwhelming under normal circumstances. But when your child is suffering, you feel a sense of desperation and a natural instinct to protect your kid. Under these circumstances, it's quite easy to succumb to fear and feel pressured into making decisions that don't feel quite right. You want to end your child's suffering but question if putting them on powerful, psychoactive drugs is your best and only option?
This guidebook provides parents and caregivers with the knowledge and tools they need to make confident and informed decision about mental health treatment for their kids.
