Feeling sad

Hi, my daughter as been self harming at school and home, CAHMS have done assessments and then discharge her. She came home from school today and told me she just feels sad most of the time. Do you think if I take her to doctors they will put her on antidepressants or is she too young she's 15 in 2 months.

I was also 14 and exactly like your daughter. Definitely go to the GP. Get all the help you can for her.

Thank you! She keeps getting discharged from Cahms. She sees a counsellor at school.

It is better to take your daughter to a good counsellor. It may be helps to reduce your daughter mental stress and also improving in her academic performance.
