MENTAL HEALTH
/men·tal/ /health/
n.noun
The term ‘mental health’ refers to a person’s condition with regard to their psychological and emotional well-being. A person’s mental health can be failing, or even deteriorating, but this does not mean a person is permanently damaged. Many mental health services offer hope to those who are currently struggling with the state of their mental health.
A teen’s state of mental health can be fickle. As teens are particularly insecure and living in a confusing transitional period, their mental health state may change on almost a daily basis. As every teen struggles with adolescence one way or another, it is imperative to be able to recognize true mental health problems as teens are sensitive and more likely to make poor decisions based on poor mental health.
For parents of teens who struggle with a state of poor mental health, there are many therapeutic services in which you can utilize in helping restore therapeutic wellness in your child. Therapeutic boarding schools, group homes for struggling teens, and residential treatment centers are among the most popular and effective choices among parents of children with poor mental health.
