Raising sensitive issues and working to resolve problems that arise along the way can be challenging. It can also be hard as a parent to know the difference between normal behaviour, such as moodiness, irritability and withdrawal, and an emerging mental health problem. This section is designed to help you.
Do you have a few minutes to spare? If you are a family member or friend supporting a young person who is seeking support at a headspace centre, we would love to hear from you!

Dual diagnosis - mental health and alcohol and other drugs
Many young people have both mental health difficulties, and alcohol or other drug problems, but services don’t always deal with both issues. It can hard as adults supporting a young person to know where to start when it’s complex and when both mental health problems and drug use are factors. For this session we are partnering with Nexus, a specialist dual diagnosis consultancy service.
