Description
Though adolescent girls have been experiencing high rates of depression for a long time, the recent pandemic has deepened the crisis. Dr. Green has witnessed the rising tide of despair in teen girls both in her own private practice and at the medical university in which she teaches child and adolescent psychiatry. In Heal Your Daughter: How Lifestyle Psychiatry Can Save Her from Depression, Cutting, and Suicidal Thoughts, Green delineates a new branch of psychiatry, Lifestyle Psychiatry, and details how this new field can help parents to help their daughters to heal from depression and related problems. From this book, readers will learn what steps they can take to help their daughters to reshape their daily habits so that, in turn, they can reclaim the foundations of their physical and mental health. Recommendations are offered in six lifestyle domains: nutrition, detoxification, exercise, sleep, emotional connectedness, and stress reduction. Heal Your Daughter has proven to be an important new contribution to our collective understanding and support of today's girls.
