¿Tiene mi hijo un problema de salud mental?

Esta información también está disponible en inglés.

Hable con su hijo para saber cómo está. Préstele toda su atención. Escuche atentamente, repita lo que oyó y pregunte si lo ha entendido bien. Si su hijo se siente escuchado y comprendido, es más probable que se comunique con usted.

Observe lo que está pasando con su hijo. Usted conoce a su hijo mejor que nadie.

Estos son algunos aspectos a los que debe prestar atención:

  • Photo of father talking with teen sonBecoming more irritable, hyperactive, energetic, fidgety, or aggressive.
  • Esta más irritable, hiperactivo, enérgico, inquieto o agresivo. Tiene tristeza, miedos o preocupaciones excesivos.
  • Disminuye fuertemente su rendimiento académico, se mete en problemas en la escuela o no asiste a ella.
  • Pierde el apetito, aumenta o pierde peso de forma significativa, no duerme o duerme mucho.
  • Evita actividades o se aleja de familiares y amigos.
  • Consume alcohol o drogas.
  • Tiene pensamientos suicidas o de hacerse daño a sí mismo o a otros. No tenga miedo de preguntarle a su hijo si está teniendo estos pensamientos. Sus preguntas no pondrán esos pensamientos en la mente de su hijo. Por el contrario, le deja saber que se interesa por él y que lo ayudará a mantenerse a salvo.
