Fatherhood - Youth mental health
Information about youth mental health for migrant and refugee fathers.
As a father, it is important to be aware that youth and early adulthood is a difficult time for most. The body changes, relationships with family and friends change, and young people need to make decisions such as what career or education pathways they wish to pursue. Hormonal changes experienced through youth and early adulthood can affect a person’s mental health, as changes to chemicals in the brain can affect emotions, thoughts and behaviours.
