ANTIDEPRESSANTS
When it comes to antidepressants, in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, we predominantly use Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs). These are a class of antidepressant medications commonly used to treat conditions such as major depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, and certain other mental health conditions.

The interaction between social media and a child’s developing brain
Social media is here to stay - fortunately or unfortunately. However, right here and now, it is affecting children and compromising their natural development.

Attachment: The importance of being there for your children
A healthy attachment to a parent or caregiver gives a child the necessary tools to navigate the world. Insecure attachment or neglect leads to the development of anxiety disorders, unhealhy relationships and multiple mental health difficulties later on in life. As parents prioritise a healthy relationship with your children above anything else.
