• TITLE: The Importance of Recognising Depression in Adolescents Affected by Parental Illness

  AUTHORS: David Morley, Crispin Jenkinson

  KEYWORDS: Adolescent; Depression; Parental Illness

  JOURNAL NAME: Psychology, Vol.3 No.9A, September 25, 2012

  ABSTRACT: Research focusing on the impact of parental illness has increased rapidly in recent years, with studies on a range of both chronic and acute illnesses having now been reported. A key and consistent finding is the elevated risk of depression that young people face when adjusting to and living with a parent experiencing such a condition. Examples from the literature include studies focusing on parental multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, cancer, affective disorder and traumatic brain injury. Such a body of literature emphasises the need to recognise and manage the increased risk of depression that young people face when confronted with such parental conditions and that a more family centred approach to parental illness is required. Additionally, it is important that the potential threat parental illness poses to young people’s mental well-being is reflected in relevant clinical guidelines.
