What are the warning signs of depression in teens? When do social media and gaming habits cross the line into putting kids at risk? How can parents keep teens healthy and safe—without sledgehammering all their devices?
This realistic, reassuring guide from adolescent psychiatrist and parent Meredith E. Gansner gives parents the latest information about depression in teens, with a special focus on digital media use. Filled with vivid stories, the book illuminates the warning signs of teen mental health problems and self-harm; what parents can do to help, including downloadable practical tools; and how to find effective diagnosis and treatment. Exploring myths and facts about internet addiction, dangerous viral trends, and cyberbullying, Dr. Gansner provides actionable steps for curbing them. Every chapter also identifies positive technology resources for both kids and parents, from supportive online communities to health-promoting sites and apps.
"This is the first book I will recommend to any parent worried that their teenager is depressed. Gansner's approach is evidence based and relatable....Gansner unpacks the complexities of how the internet and social media are impacting depressed teens—both positively and negatively—including the epidemic of inaccurate self-diagnosis."
— Jodi Gold, MD, Director, Gold Center for Mind Health and Wellness, New York City
