Helping children when and where they need it most

As the stresses and disappointments of the pandemic wear on, it’s no surprise that even ordinarily cheerful kids are having a hard time coping. With frayed nerves and short tempers all around, it can be hard to know: Is my child just being moody? Or is there something more serious going on?

This week on childmind.org ([link removed]) we offer an expert perspective on seasonal affective disorder ([link removed]), or SAD, a specific kind of depression that affects some people in the winter. What is seasonal affective disorder? How do you know if your child is experiencing it — and how can you help? Plus, ideas for supporting the whole family’s mental health this winter, from fostering resilience ([link removed]) to prioritizing self-care ([link removed]).
