Your Child's Psychological Checklist

  1. Has your child had a persistent sad or melancholy mood?
  2. Has your child been nervous, anxious, fearful or phobic for a few months?
  3. Has your child experienced serious chronic sleeping or eating problems?
  4. Has your child's behavior worsened substantially?
  5. Has your child's academic performance continually deteriorated?
  6. Has your child withdrawn from friends and/or family and become a loner?
  7. Is she saying that she has no friends and that no one likes her?
  8. Has your child complained of persistent headaches or stomachaches?
  9. Has your child talked of wishing she were dead, not wanting to be alive or how she is going to die?

If the answer to any of these questions is yes, and if your child's condition does not improve within a few weeks, seek professional help. If the answer to question 9 is yes, seek help immediately.
