Publisher's summary

Two point eight million teenagers have had at least one major depressive episode in their lives. Is your child one of them?

Have you noticed that your kid is always angry or frustrated, even over small matters? Have they lost interest or stopped making an effort to communicate with you or their friends? Are they tired all the time, yet insomniac and always agitated and restless? If you've answered "yes" to any of those questions, then you may be dealing with a depressed and/or anxious teen. Between trying to establish an identity, become more independent, discover their sexuality, take more social risks, and even experiment with alcohol and drugs, this period in your teen's life comes at a high emotional and mental cost. But behind all the natural turmoil of the teenage years may hide a bigger and more treacherous problem that, if left unresolved, can lead to devastating consequences. It may seem overwhelming at first, but you need to know that it's not at all uncommon. In The Anxious Teenager, you will discover:

  • How to pinpoint the true symptoms of depression and anxiety, so you can tell the difference between normal teenage behavior and behavior caused by a mental health condition
  • The crucial changes you need to adopt in your everyday life to help make your teen's depression and anxiety less overwhelming for both you and them
  • Key strategies to become the safe space your kid needs, allowing them to trust you and open up to you more easily
  • How to become less judgmental in order to communicate with your teen gently and kindly, providing the structure and support they need during these difficult times
  • The number one mistake parents with depressed children make that can make or break your relationship with your depressed teen
  • And much more...

So if you want to understand your teen, then you need this audiobook today!

The anxiety killer

Anxiety is an up and down battle for me. But knowing audiobooks like this exist gives me the confidence to step over the hump and pursue my goals. I currently have a teenage little sister and this is a book she needs to hear so she avoids some of the costly mistakes I’ve made due to anxiety.

Very Helpful and Informative

The audible "The Anxious Teenager" I found to be very helpful as it provided information for handling and managing my teenagers. Training teenagers can be difficult if you don't know how and why they behave the way they do. The audible has really shun the light on these questions. The tips and ideas shred has been helpful.

Spectacular!

For everyone who has teenagers, this book will help you. Many teenagers suffer from anxiety and depression. Fast living is one of the causes and all my kids are addicted to screens. It's an unhealthy lifestyle. This very well-presented audiobook guides you through the maze of the teenage mind and offers good solutions to complex problems.
