Changes to routine can be challenging and your daughter may experience times when she feels a range of uncomfortable emotions such as sadness, stress, or isolated. Feelings come and feelings go. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">During the holidays we encourage you to check in with her if you notice any concerns or changes in behaviours or functioning. It can be helpful to let her know that you are available to speak with. You may also like to encourage them to stay connected with friends, look after their physical health and engage in the activities that they enjoy. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you identify that she may benefit from chatting with someone, we encourage you to make them aware and support them to access support services. This may be engaging with your local headspace centre, GP or access online or telephone support through eheadspace (1800 650 890) or kidshelpline (1800 55 1800).\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Please note that you can also call these numbers to help guide your support, alongside parentline (1300 1300 52).<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Apps and websites for support:<\/span><\/i><\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">My Compass<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mycompass.org.au\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">https:\/\/www.mycompass.org.au\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> This is a resource created by Black Dog which creates personalised support for mental health.
