What causes children to have anger issues?
Children likely have anger issues due to their environment. Environment can be broken down into different categories, such as: social environment (how their family and friends interact with them), Physical Environment (nutrition, toxin exposure, etc.), and their own physical body environment (genetic predisposition, injuries, congenital defects, etc.). It can be challenging to nail it down to one thing. Often, you will find it is a combination of different things. This is why it is so important for you to track symptoms and talk to a professional pediatric counselor and pediatrician. Rule out physical causes, evaluate their social and physical environments, and then begin to consider diagnoses such DMDD (especially in young children), ODD, GAD, ASD, etc. READ MORE
Can depression medications cause more harm?
I'm only a counselor and am answering from that perspective. I've seen great good come from medications. However, it is very normal to experience negative symptoms as you trial out different medications. It is uncommon for the first medication to work and be all that you need. Our brains are complicated. It's important that you educate yourself enough to advocate for yourself. Keep in close contact with your doctor that manages your medications. Know that mental health medications can interact with other medications taken for pain, blood pressure, etc. So, yes, there can be harm, but there can also be good. You likely want to approach it from the angle of how well am I functioning and is that enough. If it isn't, start looking for solutions through therapy, Neurofeedback, and/or medication management. Good Luck! READ MORE
