Recently released figures in the UK show the number of children requiring treatment for serious mental health problems has risen sharply in a year.
These figures include children who are suicidal, self-harming, depressed, anxious and those with eating disorders.
If we look back at the figures for previous years, we can see a really worrying upward trend with this year's figure showing a 39% increase on the year before.
What's going on?
In today's video, and those in the week's to come, I will be attempting to shed some light on this question.
