Reconnecting and working together as a community to help our kids build resilience will improve mental health outcomes. We cannot rely on government services alone, they are too over stretched. #community #Mentalhealth

Young people have all the answers on how to help them when they are doing it tough. We just need to know how to ask the right questions, connect with them, and listen. #Mentalhealth #YouthEmpowerment

Adults that intervene when a young person can manage their distress are robbing them of a chance to build their own coping and resilience. Know when and how to respond. #coping #resilience #anxietydisorders #MentalHealthAwareness

Imagine being a Primary School teacher and all of a sudden you have kids coming to you with suicide ideation. This is happening more and more. Where has this come from? #Mentalhealth #teachersoftwitter

Part of helping kids build resilience and tolerance to stress is giving them a positive experience when they demonstrate help seeking behaviour. Even if that behaviour isn’t helpful. #Mentalhealth #stress #youthmentalhealth

Adults should encourage “attention seeking” behaviour from young people. It’s what often keeps them safe. Let’s call it help seeking instead. #mentalhealthlanguage #MentalHealthAwareness

Quality relationships from safe and effective adults with young people are the antidote to poor mental health. #Mentalhealth #youngpeople #stressmanagement

Waiting lists for families and young people in crisis to gain professional help is often 3 months. This is unacceptable. We as a community need to build capacity in ourselves. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthcrisis #communityapproach

As a community we need to take responsibility and action for the youth mental health crisis our country has. Learning simple Psychological First Aid training is a start.

Before responding to a child in distress first check in on yourself. #psychologicalfirstaid

Imagine the outcomes we wouldn’t get if there was no DR ABC. “Dire” was the answer we just received from a clinician. We need to learn TAR3 Psychological First Aid. It’s as important. #Mentalhealth

Adolescent mental health: ED presentations for suicidal ideation & self-harm by 10-24y were ⬆️ by 8.4% each year before the pandemic but “growth accelerated since Covid to 19.2% per annum, primarily due to increased presentations by females aged 13–17 y”. theguardian.com/society/2023/j…

Welcome back educators. Hope you enjoyed a nice break. Thank you for the wonderful work you do with our country’s next generation. #teachersnsw
