The Royal College of Psychiatrists' Mental Health and Growing Up factsheets may be able to help. These short, simply written and easily understandable information sheets offer parents, teachers and young people practical and up-to-date information on what you can do if you are worried about your child, a pupil or a friend. There are over 40 different factsheets covering a wide range of emotional, behavioural and mental health problems that often affect children and young people. Each factsheet explains what the problem might be, the possible causes and effects, gives tips to help you deal with it, outlines the treatments available, gives the best available evidence, and shows how and where to get help and further information. Many include real life case studies. This edition has a new section on surviving adolescence. The factsheets are written in simple language, so as to be accessible to the general public. Each factsheet can be photocopied easily (free of charge) for use as handouts for patients, young people, pupils, parents or friends. The pack is ideal for school or practice nurses, their colleagues or any professionals working with children and young people.
