- "Kids On The Edge" triple episode
Ep 1 - Our children are struggling to know how to live in today's world. Unprecedented numbers are being diagnosed with mental health disorders, medicated, or are facing a crisis of identity. For almost 100 years the Tavistock and Portman has been at the forefront of exploring young minds. This series, with exclusive access to the Trust, goes behind Tavistock's doors for the first time.
Ep 2 - The specialist team of teachers, mental health nurses, therapists and support workers work intensively with its 18 students, many of whom have been excluded from mainstream schools. The programme follows 11-year-old Josh in his last term at the school. He was adopted when he was six, but his traumatic early years have been worked through in his time at the school.
Ep 3 - Self-harm and suicide are major public health problems for teenagers. Although boys are by no means immune, one in three UK teenage girls is now said to report symptoms of anxiety or depression. A&Es describe a surge in teenagers who seek treatment for their self-harming injuries, and they are predominantly girls. This episode tells the stories of two teenage girls who have repeatedly harmed themselves, and shows the support they receive from Tavistock clinicians.

I am 16 years old and I lost my granddad in 2020 when I was 12 and have been self harming and trying or wanting to since then. I'm getting better with therapy and the support of my family. To anyone out there that is in this position, YOU ARE WORTHY, BRAVE, LOVED AND IMPORTANT.
@SkyeFinan-xd3ig so well said. ❤you have compassion for others. I hope you have as much compassion for yourself. Clearly you’re worth it.
I lost my grandmother around the same time. And I recently lost my dad. I’ve been SH for years now. It’s like an addiction. That constant relief after. But not always. And definitely not the way of loving yourself, and taking care of yourself like you would a friend.
You are extremely important! I am a psych and detox nurse in Arizona. I love you kids and want you to know how valuable you are!
Tragic for a child to lose a mom to cancer and have zero contact from her father. It used to be family was aunts and uncle's and grandparents and cousins. Where are all these family members that matter so much?!!
She does have other family but they said she fell out with them all and doesn't want to see them

When i worked as a complex needs, mental health within learning disability nurse, one of our young care assistants used to self harm. She lived in the shadow of her twin sister, who was a qualified nurse. It was hard to watch her deteriorate, even with "therapy", and one day, she never came back to work. I never saw or heard of her again, that was 25 years ago.
I pray she found recovery & inner peace 🙏
You can never give someone the love they are missing- that eluded them in their past. For, even if their absent, neglectful parent resurfaced to shower them with all the love they never gave in the past- the very love the person feels they’re missing- the time for that has past. There is but one way to fill that hole, which is to come to love oneself. If one can lead another down the road to coming to love themselves, they will again, be completed.
Well said. ❤
i feel so bad for the parents that haven’t dealt with this before and trying to understand and help it’s so painful for them to see their children self destruct but at the same time i understand so much as i have been in this mindset before and know from experience that it is out of our control and i never wished to hurt or upset my parents but once again it’s like it isnt me in my head or body. my heart goes to everyone
one of the things i've noticed is when i'm watching this compaired to when i was training and with these guys, when the children are mad/angry in the pad room etc whatever you call it, when they're in that state, you cannot reason with them properly until the're calm, and then you start tallking to them because when they're in the state of anger they won't listen to you, they will not take on board what you have just said, and as soon as they're calm they will talk to you in their own time, where as none of these adults do that, you just have to be patient and wait for them to cam down 100% trust me it works.
I wish I could reach out and hug these kids and tell them how beautiful and special they are and so important and let them vent and hit me and let it all out. Im 42, severely autistic currently non verbal and my whole body is covered in scars. I know I understand. It is not something most people understand. These kids need to feel really truly heard, they fear loss and abandonment, they fear judgement and that everything they do think and say will be wrong. They do not know where they fit into it all, they are lacking love and empathy purpose and hope. We need to help them find out what matters them the most and who they really are and take it one step at a time, not letting them down again. Help them find a solid place in the world, teach them how to ground themselves and build them up in confidence. Celebrate what they are good at what they CAN do and they can do so much more than even they know. Many have been abused and won't tell you. Some may not even know they have been abused till later. It's inside though torturing them. They want you to SEE the pain inside. They do not want to die they want to want to live and everyone lets them down. They loose hope.
I get MH as I struggle myself, but the whole world is not around those ones, they have to put something from themselves into recovery. Doctors, nurses, social workers are not magicians …no one can make us better if we don’t want to put any work into it x
This IS A SHELL of a school, in a system that’s constantly failing us. Places like this aren’t going to get anybody better. We need more people that understand the compassion and nurturing of others.
I don’t know how the Moms deal with their mentally ill daughters. They must be exhausted. And the poor girls have such struggles to deal with in their young lives. You can only hope they get stronger and find joy in their lives.
I have no idea how my mum survived all of the years I put her through. But I’m glad that we came out of it on the other side together. She stuck by me through all of the fights and highs and lows and now 10 years later I’ve been lucky enough to find kind healthcare professionals to help me understand what was happening to my brain in that time. That can be the hardest part after you lose trust in healthcare workers after one bad experience when you’re in a vulnerable place
With ADHD, the fact is that certain parts of the brain associated with executive functioning have not developed properly. It's not really a matter of bad parenting, although that makes it much worse.
Oh god I remember frequenting self-harm forums at their age, before instagram was ever a thing. No one ever had any idea I was doing such a thing, kind of wish I'd been obvious so parents could have gotten me help...
All the time spent on these appointments can’t replace the time that should have been spent nurturing these children earlier
I wonder how all these kids are doing now. I was a severely mentally ill teen but as an adult I have a pretty stable and awesome life. I hope they've been able to do the same.
I'm the same I spent 3 years in impatient and i was told i was lifer but now at 25 I have bpd , autisme and adhd diagnosis and overall I'm pretty stable now
These children must learn to love themselves as nobody else did
Easier said than done when the children have had no model of what love is throughout their entire lives. How do you learn something you can’t comprehend?
@@beautyguru4you1 that’s the beauty and challenge of life, finding and setting of on your very own journey
It is so sad for the parents of these mentally ill children. It would be difficult. So kudos for them trying their best.
And good luck to them. This would be a horrific thing to deal with. Sad.
All the people who worked with the children were so skillful and especially so loving
So it worked
And the children often so smart
This was very uplifting even though lots of diffculties for the children
I used to self harm as a child ...shes going to grow up to hate the scars and regret it....
Not everyone is same I did child still does as adult and don’t care about the marks
Aww I feel sorry for the children going through this and even worse for the poor poor parents 😢
Thanks for this program because I am studying mental health and I want to help people understand ❤
I just want to give Dimi a hug
Mental health is important
They need to uninstall all social media right away.
Exactly
@@mackeverett3783that does nothing
I got rid of all social media 2 yrs ago and I couldnt be happier. @@mackeverett3783
I think, in today's world where kids/teens are constantly receiving criticism online etc, it is essential for them to have access to psychotherapy or just someone to guide them, tell them their OK, be on their side, talk to them.
My daughter is 12 and she started the depression journey
To let u know as a father yes there is hand behind that crisis dark hands touching every weak kid out there. It's social media and even some book maybe you think it's goof books but the true is not there is dark in the background one of the story is homestock my daughter obsessed with it she go to school everyday with same cloth as the creator and then she start be attitude with her mom and brother she start lately saying I have suicide thoughts yes 12 years old. I took her to mental hospital for week and she is out now I changed her life little bit I took her tablet away I searched it I found alot of bad ppl talked to her in social media snap chat
Group room homestock talking about the story and killing self
My daughter has been reading it and live it for 5 years and we don't know about she was so good kid and I still struggling with her till now. She is with therapist I hope she will be ok
These children are crying out for attention and negative attention from their behaviour replaces the fact that they can’t get positive attention due to lack of money lack of love lack of qualifications lack of safety
It is so clear we need to teach young humans to look inside. And as much as I respect therapists they need the help of spiritual guides. They need yoga masters and monks who can help them calm their minds and stop the external noise and stimulus.
Regarding social media. You can hem and haw all day long about "parental controls" or you can require parents to teach their kids good social media management skills. That's on you, parents...
Cutting doesnt always stem from depression.
I gave my children’s friends who were cutting Wartenberg wheels so they could get the same sensation without damaging their body.
And yet, despite amazing modern research that shows dietary changes can make life saving improvements in adult mental health, no-one seems to be questioning the role of the appalling, ultraprocessed diet in these young people
Exactly
DID at 14? it's concerning that someone out there made that diagnosis.
I mean, it DOES develop first in childhood
When you feel like a project and nobody else cares about you and the condition around you is messup will play a part how you understand things it is hope for people like that these children are being treated like a project
They are to young to make a decision like this the ideal is to tell them when you get this age 18 than see how the person is thinking
Feel like when ur in need of mental health services you don’t know it u know your sad or anxious but u can’t explain it don’t know how to say u need help u think I’m not that crazy very crazy person thinks that because for them it’s real but to other people it’s insane like your emotions and my bipolar coming to the realization of the mental illness for life is rough I’ve done it lol I’m still here idk how but yes kids need mental health help parents need to see it and get it and it needs to be more well known no stigma and free help easily assesable
The kids aren't alright.
Obviously?
Some Teachers don't help, nor does the celeb/ perfect face/figure culture help.
@@NailLoverNr1It's an offspring song from 1998, the kids have never been alright
@@no-oneinparticular7264you cant blame others for your own actions.
no some of them look and act like they have autism/adhd
These are some very sick kids. 😢😢😢

Jesus healed me from myself. He healed me completely from my mental health situation where I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder, generalised anxiety disorder, anorexia and bulimia as well as self harm! I will be praying for all of you. You are not alone
This has been me and my mom lol therapy is needed hard to want therapy and help for yourself but ya push for the answers of bipolar for me and my mom medications are necessary
What??
I hope you find power and peace in your own beautiful skin one day ❤
Mind blowing how noone discusses what Kids are watching on social media, internet, the dynamics of single parent child raising, the study of the the feelings mental health development and self identity natural uncertainty during childhood/puberty period, spiritual biblical support, solid mentorship, helping a child to invest in a hobby/sports/self expression outside of themselves😂 Believe it or not all children needs these fundamentals. Giving them hormones, dresses, haircuts, pronoun changes is not the answer, just a bandage making the parent feel better ..###livedthroughnaturaldevelopmentofthe dynamicsofidentity.
It's almost like cutting is a form of stimming for certain girls. Not sure if they have Aspergers or not (girls are very under-diagnosed for that), but in a way, it seems like maybe that's what it is for some girls. Has anyone tried putting these girls on a regimen of chamomile, lavender, and red rooibos tea? Just curious.
Man said he was a girl sent to female prison got 3 inmates pregnant when interviewed informed he still identified as female. Some point you have to draw a line. This is a true story... Sad three newborns caught up in a big mess. Js
👍🏼
Ash's mum is very abusive calling her a cow and asking why she is acting like an idiot!
Imagine talking to your parents like she does in 50s. Yeah that will work well for 5hat boy
What is wrong with some of the people in comments?? 😭
They live in a world that doesnt revolve around them.
the maisie one look a lot more like manipulation and attention seeking than anything else
If the one kid wants to be called Matt and says he’s a boy why is his family misgendering him? Like why call him her..?
What is the real reason causes it? is it the brain disorder or emotions how can we deal with these behavior.
4:00 Sir, you're the adult in the room, not her. You tell her where she's going to go with things. She's a child and needs your guidance, not your asking her what she's going to do next. Seriously.
I appreciate the desperation but the police are NOT social workers nor are they there to mediate.
I can see people who grew up as slaves, they do not complain, and through adult life, they do not complain. The physical and mental need to suffer the max sentence to understand mental balance. These kids from rich countries show that only psychology doesn´t give results positive. Indeed, psychology only has been studied for the last 100 years, it is all new.
No money no qualification no chances

I've googled Tavistock clinic. NHS is shutting it or has shut it down. Great idea, if they were doing what was said. Shame on them.
What happened there?
Last I heard it wasn’t shutting down it was just stopping taking people due there being too many… I’m pretty sure they made mow smaller versions of it around England so that people can still get help
No they haven't. They shut down the Gender clinic (And for good bloody reasons!) but Tavistock still exists and is doing what it was before, minus brainwashing 5 year olds to start transitioning.
Yes it was shut down after a damming report on the service. It was instigated by whistle-blower's who were troubled about the practices that were taking place. Also Kiera Bells Court case against them for transitioning her into a boy as a minor.
how to be empathetic to self absorbed narcissistic kids seems hard
What? U serious? They aren't narcissistic at all...their kids crying out for help majority of the time u may get the odd attention seeking kid yet u think causing intentional pain n scarring on yourself is done just 4 attention? U have no clue....I used to self harm as a child but in secret...so how can that b seeking attention? I was embarrassed and ashamed by it ffs. For example u can see clear distinctions with the kids that are clearly withdrawn and secretive with it or their loud and 'proud' with it. Green haired girl for example...
Some of these children seem really ungrateful and disrespectful
lol my mom was mentally abusive not physically except one time she laughs about it now f up I really needed her help and she was so self absorbed to help me when I was bipolar took me years to figure out thought I was a man hating lazy depressed crazy a hole and I was but I just needed to talk it out with my mom and do some therapy but she wouldn’t do it always excuses like I had to pay for it cuzz there’s nothing wrong with her well she’s narcissist so no getting over that lol military parent who always thinks there right and your wrong never apologizes we don’t speak anymore and that’s fine but leads to being homeless ex husbands drugs or alcohol and depression or just depression and anxiety can make u want to die and not get help but if you are able to get help easily then that’s all that matters
@@KayLeeHoward-vc2ph What does that have to do with the original comment lmao? Also you really need to use punctuation. Hard to read
@@fatimamebarki4599they are mentally I’ll. That’s what narcissism is. You need to treat people with NPD with respect.
Yet wonder what the stats of parents glued to their smart-phones as well? & ignored their kids?
Why is a 17 year old living in a hostel and not with their parents?
With the one girl, her mum died of cancer and she doesn't see her dad
Nver let a child near kitchen equipment they don't already know how to use before showing them yourself!!! Why are the adults in this video not acting like actual adults?! You TEACH her how FIRST and THEN let her handle it!!!!! Seriously, what's wrong with these people?!!!
Welcome to the next generation of serial un alivers.
Todays society is a complete and utter MESS !! The lack of discipline is an absolute disgrace , kids are brought up to not respect their elders. I’d be ashamed if I raised a child like that ………. In our day , we were corrected , and our dads were the head of the household.
@@Efhgi YES of course there’s exceptions and mental health issues etc. I wasn’t referring to kids or anyone that needs medical interventions, I’m just speaking about lack of discipline and the lack of respect that comes with that.
mmmmmh and this is the generation that resulted..... were they really doing it right???
@@treasalynam8940no its generation after that!!! You softies and helicopter mums.
No one should respect u just because your old
Some of these kids don't even have dads or male role models. The pressures of adolescence, especially social media is the bane of a developing brain. Things ARE different now, that's something we've all had to assimilate towards. Things are continuing to get worse. I will not bring a child in to this world knowing how dangerous and unstable it can be.
What a load of crap parents.
First do no harm is being ignored in this gender disphoria. The idea is rediculous but this autism is just another brick in the wall of confusion. I'm 67 so have zero reference to any of this from my youth.
The world changes
Well this didn't end well for the Tavistock. Still, Dr Polly will get a nice £80,000, after presiding over that disaster. Never mind the lives ruined.
lmfao what ever stop med kids and be parents need to do there jobs ....
I am a mum who has 3 kids on the autistic spectrum and my oldest started hurting herself due to the death of her dad. I have up my job as a support worker for mental health so I could spend more time with my kids xx
what a brat
Who’s a brat? Genuinely I dunno who your talking about?
@@DaidreamBoi the girl that went golum when she got angry
VIDEO IS TO LONG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111
Go somewhere else¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@Lilygirl283 REPORTED VIDEO TO TRUMP
wow
Maisie acts like a spoiled brat.
No, she has mental health issues. She isn't doing it on purpose, I've grown up in the care system and I've seen loads of kids like Maisie. They need help and support and their brains are still developing. Society used to treat people like Maisie badly and it usually makes their behaviour worse.
@@IszyChurch I honestly think that even if you have a mental illness that is not an excuse to, for example, write on the walls, like you´ve got papers to do so... or for example to have to physically get your mum to remove a sharp object from your hands when you know you are not allowed to have it... I think in her case it´s a mix of both.... having mental issues with lack of boundries because "poor girl she´s got problems so I can´t set boundries"...
I´ve seen that parents with teens who have mental health problems act as if they couldn´t tell their kid "no" because they feel pitty for them... and it ends up making the situation worse cos they use the initial problem to get away with everything...
(sorry if there are grammatical or spelling mistakes on it... I´m not an English native speaker)
