This is a great book of wisdom for teens.

Not all teens battle depression and anxiety, however, many do. The pressure added as a result of the covid-19 lockdowns took teens away from their friends, school and everyday routine and made it very difficult to form new relationships. Being alone is the beginning of anxiety, followed by a lack of interactions with schoolmates, can lead to depression. The frustration of not knowing how to handle feelings of being "lost", and not wanting to talk to a parent about their feelings, further isolates the teen. Every teen has a different journey and is running on a parallel course with many other teens. This book is presented in such a way that a teen will probably accept the advice and suggestions as useful and not threatening. Every step forward is progress and can only be measured by how the teen feels.

I recommended this book to my daughter, who is currently in Greece and struggling with severe anxiety and homesickness. She accessed it through Audible, and it’s been a great help. The book provides practical steps and coping mechanisms that have allowed her to manage her anxiety and start enjoying her time away. Its real-life examples and focus on resilience offer a comprehensive understanding of mental health. It’s been an invaluable resource for her, helping her feel more grounded and supported while she's so far from home. I highly recommend it for any teen dealing with similar challenges.
