Help is Finally Here for the Parents of Children Suffering From Anxiety

A parent whose child is suffering from anxiety can feel utterly helpless. They are desperate to help them but simply don't know what to do. For a parent whose child is on the CAMHS waiting list, the waiting time can feel interminable or even catastrophic. But there is something a parent can do to help their child - and themselves. ISPCC provides three separate but complimentary Digital Mental Health and Wellbeing programmes, two of which are available to parents/carers of either anxious children or teens while the third is aimed at teenagers experiencing low to moderate levels of anxiety. ISPCC offers these programmes to all, it isn't necessary to be on a CAMHS waiting list to avail of them. The online programmes, which are all free, are based on the principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, and are created by SilverCloud, a leading digital mental health provider. For Susan Nicholson, who completed the Supporting an Anxious Child programme after her GP recommended that her daughter Lauren attend CAMHS, the ISPCC programmes were invaluable. "I wanted to do something that would help our family to support Lauren. The programme encouraged me to look at the positives rather than focusing on the effects of her anxiety. Going through the programme, you could see what other parents were going through, and you're able to relate to their challenges. To know that other people are going through is very helpful. As a parent, you're supposed to know all the answers, and it's scary. "Starting the programme was such an easy process. I liked the fact that it was anonymous, nobody knew me, and I didn't have to go to a meeting in person. It was such a personal experience - in a good way. I didn't feel like I was just another number. ? Supporting an Anxious Child and Supporting an Anxious Teen are programmes that will help users to understand anxiety and better support their child or young person. Space from Anxiety is aimed at 15-18-year-olds, and it is designed to empower young people who experience low to moderate anxiety. An adult can refer themselves or their child to the programmes. The programmes includes interactive tools, activities, mood monitors and journals to encourage users to apply CBT to their own lives. Users have 12 weeks in which to complete the programme under the guidance of a volunteer, known as a supporter, and can avail of an unsupported version of the programme for one year after this time. "Chloe [my supporter] was very empathetic," says Susan. "When you're in this situation, it's great when you know someone else cares. I felt as if she cared about Lauren." Dee Higgins, an ISPCC volunteer who works on its Digital Mental Health and Wellbeing programmes, believes that the programmes are empowering for users of all ages. "It gives parents and young people a chance to deal with their anxieties before it becomes a huge issue," she said, adding that "if parents can understand what their child is going through, that's a huge step."

Dr. Asilay Seker sits down with Professor Kapil Sayal from the University of Nottingham to discuss the STADIA trial (STAndardised DIagnostic Assessment for children and adolescents with emotional difficulties), which he led. This multicentre randomised controlled trial evaluated the effectiveness of incorporating a standardised diagnostic assessment tool into routine clinical care within Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). Professor Sayal explains the study's aims, the significance of its findings, and how STADIA offered valuable insights into rethinking CAMHS provision. He also discusses how a more digitalised approach could expand the service's reach and enhance support for young people and families. Asilay is later joined by Professor Andrea Danese. They discuss the complexities of trauma and PTSD, particularly in children and young people. He clarifies the definitions of trauma and PTSD, emphasizing the importance of subjective experiences in understanding mental health outcomes. The conversation also explores the impact of neurodiversity on trauma processing and highlights the need for flexible diagnostic approaches. Finally, Professor Danese underscores the importance of evidence-based treatments for PTSD and the urgent need to improve access to these interventions for affected youth.

In our current CAMHS system, vulnerable children are being left behind, over-prescribed and under-supported, which was brought to light in the shocking report about the system last year.  In this week's episode Niall is joined by three mothers whose families have been through the immense stress and struggle of accessing the CAMHS system in Ireland. Hannah Ní Ghiolla Mhairtín, having received no support for her young daughter and after taking part in commissions and consultations to no avail, decided to set up Families for Reform of CAMHS to support other parents and campaign for better care for the children of Ireland. Jenny and Anne have both had horrific experiences trying to get help for their children in crisis, with lack of access in certain parts of the country and blockages due to intellectual disability diagnoses.

A Clare Autism support group is calling for a major overhaul of Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services following a damming report into patient experiences. A new survey by advocacy group 'Families for reform of CAMHS' found that 70% of parents with autistic children said their child's health deteriorated while on a waiting list. The report also found 42% of parents reported their autistic child was turned away while experiencing suicidal ideation. Ennis Voices for Autism Secretary Gearóid Mannion says the situation is deeply concerning.

Is your child's mental health hiding in plain sight? This week's episode of the Baby Tribe podcast tackles the monumental subject of childhood mental health and parenting. We reflect on our own experiences growing up under protective parents and discuss how open communication can better equip children to handle life's challenges. We dive deep into cultural differences in parenting styles, the importance of fostering resilience, and why addressing mental health openly is crucial, especially given the stark statistics on youth suicide in Ireland.  Today's children face a multitude of stressors, from school exams and body image issues to the pressures of social media and future anxieties. Joined by child psychiatrist Dr. Elizabeth Barrett, we examine how misinformation online compounds these problems and why it's vital for schools to provide accurate mental health resources. Additionally, we address the shocking data on racism and religious discrimination affecting young minds. Dr. Barrett offers practical strategies to help parents recognize emotional distress in children and emphasizes the necessity of tailored mental health support, enhancing school-based services, and improving accessibility to CAMHS.  Finally, we explore the intricate relationship between social media and adolescent mental health. While acknowledging the risks of online bullying and the impact of social media on self-esteem, we also highlight potential benefits, like supportive online communities. Parents will appreciate our practical tips on setting phone boundaries and the delicate balance between monitoring and allowing freedom. We call for stronger responsibilities from social media companies and legislators to create safer online environments. Wrapping up, we stress the foundation of good mental health: consistent sleep, regular exercise, and reconnecting with nature. Don't miss this enlightening conversation designed to equip parents with the tools to support their children's mental well-being.  Support Links: https://www.pieta.ie/ https://www.bodywhys.ie/ https://www.samaritans.org/ireland/samaritans-ireland/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Earlier this year, Ireland was left reeling after a damning report revealed the gaps and mistreatment in our child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) across the State. The report left parents and mental health professionals questioning what support is out there for children and young people who are struggling.  In this episode, Niall is joined by family psychotherapist and clinical director of the Therapy Institute, Richard Hogan. Richard has just released his new book, Home Is Where The Start Is, which offers innovative, proactive and practical strategies for dealing with a wide range of issues in the family, including excerpts of his own chaotic upbringing.  Niall and Richard discuss the failings of our mental health systems in supporting some of our most vulnerable members of society, the children, and how parents or caregivers can help them develop skills and mindsets to deal with the difficult experiences and feelings that come as part of life.  Follow Niall on IG @bressie, TikTok @niallbreslin, FB @whereismymindpodcast and Twitter @nbrez and visit his website: www.niallbreslin.com.
