Paano pakitunguhan ang batang may depression at anxiety (matinding nerbyos), o nagpapakita ng mga senyales nito:

✅ Pakinggan ang kanilang problema nang walang panghuhusga
✅ Tanggapin ang kanilang nararamdaman
✅ Ipaalam sa kanila na andyan ka lang para sa kanila
✅ Tulungan silang humanap ng tulong propesyonal

Hindi biro ang depression, maaari nitong apektuhan ang mga bata, mga teenager at matatanda.
