I came across this article in the COPMI Newsletter and thought I would share. The article is about encouraging help seeking in young people when there is parental mental illness. The article talks about what could be stopping the teen from getting support, what parents/guardians can do to encourage accessing support and resources.
1 in 5 Canadians are impacted by mental health issues. We at the Family Association for Mental Health Everywhere asks the question, who supports the other 4 people in that equation? FAME provides families and caregivers a facilitation of hope, recovery and education. We teach and support families to embrace self-care and individual responsibility.
