How can I help my child cope with mental illness?

It’s not easy for a parent when their child has been diagnosed with a mental illness. As a first step, encouraging your child to seek professional help would be extremely important. Next, it could be beneficial for you to learn ways to support your child’s difficult emotions, and their use of healthier behaviours in their recovery. The recovery process can often be tiring for the family, and I would strongly encourage parents to seek helpful supports (e.g. friends, support groups etc.) in the journey of healing. In the meantime, finding ways to connect with your child could be helpful to help them know that they are not alone in this journey.
