http://www.TransformingStigma.com In this video, mental health speaker Mike Veny answers questions about being a child and having angry outbursts. He reminds us that sometimes, their is NOTHING that you can do for someone when they are in a bad place. However, a long term commitment to therapy is essential for helping youth and children in crisis.

When it comes to children’s mental health, more services, especially support systems of care, are available than ever before, but children still aren’t getting all the help that they need. More effort still needs to be put forth regarding children’s mental health awareness.

According to that National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), 4 million youth struggle with serious mental health challenges that increase problems at home, school, with peers, and overall development. 21 percent of children between the ages of 9 and 17 have a diagnosable mental health or addictive challenge that will cause them difficulties at some level. Of that 21 percent, only 4 percent get help. Left untreated, these mental health issues become significantly worse as children get older.

50 percent of the lifetime cases of mental health challenges begin by age 14. Regardless of effective treatment, people wait a long time (many years) between the first sign of a problem and when they receive treatment. Sometimes this is due to stigma. Sometimes this is due to a lack of resources. Sometimes it’s a combination of the two.

Mike Veny is a youth and children’s mental health speaker who speaks at conferences and events throughout the world to raise awareness about children’s mental health. He’s extremely passionate about speaking at events during children’s mental health awareness week (and month). He enjoys helping young people who were like him. Growing up is tough. Growing up with additional challenges is even tougher.
