A trans-Tasman study will look at why the number of children and young people seeking help from hospital emergency departments for mental health concerns is increasing

The number of children seeking help from hospital emergency departments for mental health concerns is increasing.

The researchers will also look at how the patients are being managed, while they are within the emergency department and after they leave. "What we found, alarmingly, is that for all cases of mental health presentations to EDs, there's a disproportionate increase compared to anything else," he said. "If we can work out why this is happening now, as well as how we're managing it now, then perhaps we can alleviate that in the future."Black Dog Institute director Helen Christensen said the research was important.

drvtran Great work Viet and team. We are seeing these big increases in Queensland too. Our wonderful hard working mental health team have done a great job to manage these increasing numbers.

Climate change bullshit, doom and gloom merchants like the unhinged Greta, indoctrination at school level and a Mainstream Media who peddle fear and present end of world hysteria would be a good starting point....

Just another reason why we dont have any desire whatsoever to reproduce...we love our doggy though!!

Are parents married?

Feminism harms men - but it is often overlooked how it harms women too.

Boys are told they shouldn't boys. Girls are told they can do anything but that the males - they desire as partners secretly hates them as a part of a world-wide conspiracy. We live in a time where a medical staff can give a boy estrogen if he talks back to authority figures.

Because they are glued to their phones.... They should be called Phone gen

GRETA!!!!!!

Because the world is f*cked and they know it.

The majority of the tweets in the thread have it covered Boys are being told what is innate is bad.Competing,masculinity & stoicism is bad Girls are being told boys are to be feared.Society has the cards stacked against them.There life will amount to a never ending struggle

Because of MSM like you ABC, who on top of everything else children have to contend with, telling non stop fear mongering stories about a plandemic, climate change, gender identity etc

Look at the family unit. Look at the speed at which kids need to grow up to be stranger/cyber safe Look at parents stressed mentally, financially, time poor. Look at the world situation in our face Look at violence in video games, tv, news What strength to turn up to ED

It's because of media organisations like you xx

It's because children are not given a safe environment to grow. Unnecessary subjects are introduced such as sex and violence. Parents are not fixed. Biological parents don't end up being real parents. This gives them anxiety. The whole culture needs an overhaul.

Covid

The media hasn't helped.

simple answer..broken family and domestic violence lead to more children having problems. the happily married family have lesser presentation..fix the cause than treat the problem. when parent goes into the pre-separation phase the child behaves abnormally in schools.

It is not difficult to understand that considering the LGTB pandemic and the victimisation tendency across Australia. 🕷🇦🇺

If you keep telling children the world is going to end and only post bad news what do you expect.

We tell people to seek help if they need it, then wonder why more people seek help. Have I got that about right?

New report places unpaid workers among seniors' top concerns | Sky News AustraliaA new report from National Seniors Australia indicated a lack of clear health advice for unpaid carers of the elderly was among the top concerns for older Australians throughout coronavirus lockdowns. \n\nNational Seniors CEO Professor John McCallum said about $60 billion was provided for unpaid carers of the elderly per year, but many lacked “very clear guidance” throughout the pandemic. \n\nMr McCallum told Sky News the health advice 'was quite confusing, it was changing all the time, sometimes too much and then some people don’t have access to it because they don’t have internet connection or they can’t do it'. \n\nHe said many carers felt they lacked support from health professionals as they were not registered and also experienced higher costs and difficulty accessing necessary materials due to shutdowns. \n\n“I think they need to be recognised for what they are, they’re unpaid but they’re the care workforce and this was not recognised as an important thing,” he said. \n\n“We really need to recognise that careers are part of the workforce and they’re a very significant part of it and if we don’t maintain that then we’ve got a lot of economic costs coming.” \n\n Covid 19 Biggest Hoax In World History.
