Synopsis

Parents don't feel bad on purpose. They don't want to feel bad, just like you don't want to feel bad when you are sick with a cold or the flu and have to stay in bed when you would rather be outside playing. It just happens sometimes.

When a parent has depression, children often feel sad and confused themselves. This interactive book can help by:

  • Explaining depression and its treatment in kid terms
  • Reassuring children that their parents can get better
  • Exploring the many feelings children usually have
  • Helping children understand and express their feelings
  • Providing practical tips for coping with a parent's depression
  • Showing children how they can feel better too

Why Are You So Sad? contains a comprehensive and authoritative note to parents by therapists from the disciplines of clinical social work and clinical psychology.
