How To Maneuver Self Destructive Teens

Losing your child is probably your worst nightmare. Losing them to suicide is beyond gut wrenching!

How do you know when their serious or using their threats as manipulation?

That’s what we’re talking about on this episode Of Course.. They Make Me Crazy!

Dr. Daniel Lobel is the guest speaker. He is a clinical psychologist with more than 25 years of experience. He’s also written two books titled - When Your Daughter Has B-P-D and When Your Mother Has Borderline Personality Disorder.

I decided to have Dr. Lobel on after talking with Mike Donahue on from Value Up.Org. The father of five children talked about getting your kids to value themselves. He stressed how important that is. He also mentioned that more teen suicides are happening in affluent homes because the kids grow up not wanting to rock the boat of the perfect lifestyle their parents have created for them.

What? That’s hard to hear, I get it.

You should go back and listen to that episode too!

I wanted to bring Dr. Lobel on because you could probably use more insight into teens and their suicidal thoughts and threats. And, that's exactly what you'll get when you listen.

There is a chapter in one of Dr. Lobel’s books called Boundaries with Self-Destructive Behavior. He writes self-destructive behaviors encompass a large spectrum of acts that convey different feelings and meanings.

He’ll take us through what those behaviors are and what to look out for if you have a teen at home that you’re worrying about.
