My child seems to be isolating himself more since the pandemic, often saying that thereâs nothing else to do. Should I be worried about the drop in energy and is this linked to depression?
It is tough in this pandemic with all the restrictions and talk of staying at home especially in the initial days. Do explore activities to do together with your child and try to tap on your childâs interests to have more enagagement. Not all drop in energy may be due to depression hence do monitor the drop in energy. If low energy persists and coupled with other impairments in functioning and/or other depressive symptoms surface, eg changes in appetite and sleep, please speak to a professional who can guide you with the next steps.
