Parenting has always been difficult, now more so than ever. With an explosion of mental illnesses in youth, many parents feel powerless to help their child cope with emotional difficulties. Teens feel alone and misunderstood, while their parents feel lost on how to help. It can be difficult to find easy-to-understand advice on how to raise a teen going through mental health problems. Not Another Depressed Teen strives to help bridge this gap in communication and is a podcast for any parent who wants to learn how to help their teen grow to their fullest potential.
Each episode we will interview professors, therapists, and other mental health professionals to learn the best methods to support your child. Together, we will cover a wide variety of topics including:
- how to know whether your child needs more support for their mental health
- how to access mental health resources
- how to create and maintain a healthy relationship with your child
ABOUT THE HOSTS
Aanya and Pranjal Bhartia are students from the San Francisco Bay Area. After experiencing the negative effects of mental illness in our community, we decided to create this podcast in an effort to understand why mental illnesses have become so common, and what we can do to face them together rather than suffering through them alone.
