From the rise of AI personal technology to the ability to connect to your loved ones wherever you are, you’d think that we’re advancing as a society. But for our young people’s mental health such progress has come at a cost.
The book examines the key mental health problems impacting young people today (such as depression, loneliness and anxiety) and explains how the lifestyle, culture and world they are living in has a significant mental health impact.
Suitable for parents, grandparents, teachers, youth workers and anyone in a position of care or interested in the future of mental health, this book offers tools, exercises and resources to support the next generation.
