Mental health impacts the whole family, and when a teen or young adult goes through treatment, the healing journey extends beyond just them. Our favorite part about talking to alumni is hearing how the connection between young people and their parents becomes stronger than ever.

But remember, recovery doesn’t stop when treatment ends. For many families, the real work begins at home. Sustainable healing requires ongoing peer support for both teens and parents. Research shows that being part of a community that understands your struggles and celebrates your victories is crucial for long-term recovery.

Whether you’re facing challenges or celebrating milestones, sharing your journey with those who truly understand can make all the difference. That’s why Newport provides all our clients with a supportive community of alumni peers after discharge.

When you come to Newport, you don’t just receive treatment; you gain an entire support network that stands by you every step of the way. 🫶

Wondering what the mustaches are all about? Welcome to ! Today we wanted to shine a light on a crucial topic: the mental health of men and teen boys. Statistics show that men die by su***de 3.8 times more often than women. This statistic is a stark reminder that we must break the silence surrounding mental health and create safe spaces for men and boys to express their feelings.

It’s no secret that many boys struggle to communicate their emotions, often resorting to monosyllabic answers or avoiding eye contact altogether. But beneath that tough exterior, they may be grappling with feelings of sadness and anxiety. A recent CDC report revealed that 29% of boys report feeling sad or hopeless almost every day, and 14% have seriously considered su***de in the past year.

As parents, mentors, and loved ones, we have the power to make a difference. Here are some tips to help foster open conversations about mental health with the boys and men in your life:

1️⃣ Listen More Than You Speak: They may not always verbalize their feelings, so pay attention to their nonverbal cues. Your active listening can build trust and encourage them to open up over time.

2️⃣ Normalize Vulnerability: Show them that it’s okay to express emotions. When you share your own feelings, it creates an environment where they feel safe to do the same.

3️⃣ Educate About Mental Health: Discuss mental health openly. Use relatable examples from media or personal experiences to help them understand its importance.

4️⃣ Respect Their Space: Balance your concern with respect for their privacy. Trust is key; let them know you’re there for them without being invasive.

5️⃣ Be Open to Spontaneous Conversations: Some of the best discussions happen when you least expect them. Be ready to listen whenever they choose to share.

Let’s work together to dismantle the stigma around mental health and ensure that our boys know they are not alone. 💪💙 This Movember, let’s advocate for mental health awareness and support for all men and boys.

It can be heartbreaking to see your teen hurt by ghosting.

This behavior can trigger feelings of rejection, confusion, and self-doubt, sometimes leading to long-term effects on their mental health. It's essential to remind your teen that ghosting usually reflects the ghoster’s issues, such as social anxiety or poor communication skills, rather than their worth.

As a parent, you can help by encouraging your teen to express their feelings openly, and reassuring them that they are not alone in this experience. Help them build resilience by discussing healthy relationship patterns and the importance of self-compassion. Engaging in activities with friends and family can also help them heal.

It’s OCD Awareness Week, and we’re shining a light on a crucial topic: how relationship OCD (ROCD) can manifest in teens and impact their relationships with their parents. 💖

If you notice your teen obsessively questioning whether they’re worthy of your love or constantly worrying about meeting your expectations, it could be a sign of ROCD. Teens may find themselves trapped in a cycle of self-doubt, fixating on perceived flaws or shortcomings, and wondering if they’re good enough in your eyes. This can lead to anxiety that affects their self-esteem and overall well-being.

On the flip side, parents with ROCD might become overly focused on their child’s abilities, like intelligence, social skills, or appearance, leading to a constant comparison that can feel suffocating for both parties.

Recognizing these signs is the first step toward support. If you see your teen struggling with these thoughts, it’s essential to open up a dialogue. Encourage them to express their feelings and reassure them of your unconditional love.

If these patterns persist in either you or your teen, consider seeking help from a therapist who specializes in OCD. They can provide strategies to help both navigate these challenges and foster a healthier relationship.

Is your teen struggling with OCD? A form of the disorder known as scrupulosity OCD can turn moral concerns into overwhelming fears, making everyday decisions feel impossible.

People with this form of OCD often experience intense anxiety about committing a sin or failing to meet moral standards, leading to compulsive behaviors like excessive prayer or seeking constant reassurance.

For parents whose children struggle with OCD, it’s crucial to understand that their obsessive thoughts are unwanted and inconsistent with their true values. Effective OCD treatment, especially Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, can help your teen face their fears and find freedom from OCD-driven anxiety.
