The Kids Are Not Alright: The Real Roots of Today's Youth Mental Health Crisis

News stories abound on the youth mental health crisis. Our kids are in trouble, and it's one of the few things we can agree on as a society. But what is causing the crisis? And how do we fix it? Studies show anxiety, ADHD, depression, panic attacks, and other conditions are on the rise across the entire spectrum of young people. Are all these problems coincidentally rising in lockstep? In The Kids Are Not Alright, Philip Wire explores the evidence (it's ugly) and proposes an explanation. Beginning with an accessible summary of how panic, anxiety, and related conditions work in the brain and body, the book pivots to examine how the current ecosystem of our young people has triggered such an explosion of negative mental health outcomes. Drawing from psychology, education, and health sciences, The Kids Are Not Alright offers a stark assessment of today's reality and a blueprint for better outcomes. Teachers, administrators, parents, counselors, policymakers, and anyone else concerned about our young people will all find useful strategies for improving the lives of individual children, families, schools, and communities.
