When a parent becomes emotionally or mentally unwell, it can be difficult for them to explain to their child what is happening and for the child to make sense of their parent’s behaviour. Children and young people can feel isolated and unsupported when their parent is unwell, which can increase distress and anxiety across the family.
If you feel you are struggling with your own mental health and would like to talk to somebody, Impact on Teesside, may be able to help.
