from Part 3 - What Are the Common Mental Health Difficulties in Children and Young People and How Are They Managed? What Can You Do to Help?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 October 2022
Chapter 26 concerns children and young people who have experiences where they have lost touch with reality. These experiences may be due to a range of underlying causes. We also discuss hearing voices in children and young people, which may not necessarily indicate a mental disorder.

These children and young people may be developing a psychotic illness. We discuss the range of psychotic illnesses and how to treat them.
