Do you know how to talk to your children about mental health?

Warning signs of potential mental health issues in childrenBehaviours that last at least 3 weeks, such as:•Being less interested and involved in activities that they would normally enjoy•Change in appetite or sleeping pattern•Being easily irritated or angry, having negative thoughts and feeling stressed or worried for no reason•Decline in school, university or work performance•Involving themselves in risky behaviour that they would usually avoid

Encouraging your children to talk about mental health• Spend regular time with them•Show that you are interested in what is happening in their life•Take their feelings seriously, listen carefully and don’t judge•Let them know that you love them•Think of an appropriate place to discuss sensitive topics: on a walk, in the car, at home or outside of the home

Starting a conversation with your child about mental health• Begin with general questions such as ‘how is school going?’ or ‘how are you feeling about exams?’•Say ‘I’ve noticed that you seem to have a lot on your mind lately. I’m happy to talk or listen to see if I can help.’• Ask ‘It seems like you have not been yourself lately, how are things?’•Let them know that it’s okay if you don’t want to talk to you about it, and let them know that there are trusted people to talk to whether that be a family member or a professional.
