The Black Dog Institute has created this guide to treatment options including:
- antidepressants
- psychological therapies
- how to find the right support for your young person
The guide can help you understand if a young person is well, coping, struggling or unwell. It can also help you identify any changes in behaviour that indicate if a young person is struggling or unwell.
