In addition, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia tend to appear during adolescence and young adulthood-about the same time that substance use problems tend to emerge. This extensive and important resource on youth and concurrent mental health and substance use disorders is a well-researched and practical tool for all professionals working with youth. The manual is divided into three main sections: - Part One includes an overview of youth substance use and mental health, along with chapters on preparing to respond; identifying, assessing and planning treatment; treatment and support; and pharmacotherapy. - Part Two is an informative appendix that includes information on risk factors and protective factors, a comparative overview of substance use and mental health services for youth in Ontario, a Do You Know... section with everything you need to know about numerous substances, brief summaries of screening and assessment tools, and information on psychiatric medications. - Part Three consists of First Contact: A Brief Treatment for Young Substance Users with Mental Health Problems, a treatment manual to help care providers integrate the treatment of substance use and concurrent mental health problems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Centre for Addiction and Mental Health","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47588909809815,"sku":"9780888684769","price":3526.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780888684769.webp?v=1774968364","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/youth-drugs-and-mental-health-a-resource-for-professionals-9780888684769","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
