A very good book (short stories in English), by a very good friend, clinical psychologist and author! I recommend it highly - if you are a reader! 'Just A Hunch' by Zainab Manager.

The Amazon.com link is below.

If the link doesn't work for you just type Zainab Manager and the book shows up on Amazon and on Kindle. Also you don't need a kindle device. You can download it via the Kindle App on your phone.

Six stories that span across the writer's imagination. An ending to each tale that leaves you wanting for just a little bit more.

Irritability can be a major clue to Depression in Children

The biggest difference between symptoms of adults and those of children is that while adults are usually sad and withdrawn, children are easily aggravated and may have irrational outbursts, says Dr. Hendren. "Children might not recognize that they are feeling depressed," he says. "Often, they don't know how to identify this feeling and put it into words."

Kate Coyne*, a mom from South Portland, ME, initially took her daughter, Emma*, then 8, to a psychologist after a teacher said she'd been "uncharacteristically irritable" at school. "I was shocked when the psychologist said she was depressed," says Coyne. "Since Emma wasn't withdrawing or sleeping all the time—symptoms that might have jumped out at me—it never entered my head."
