    'Since then the Royal College of Psychiatrists has taken a great step forward in putting out guidance on stopping antidepressants in 2020, however, there is still a lack of research and therefore evidence in this area on what works for different people.'

    How to help your child create healthy boundaries around gaming.

    Make a family agreement. A family agreement allows everyone in the family to negotiate screen limits together, helping children to feel empowered by giving them a space to say what they need.
    Follow through on the boundaries you have agreed with your child.It is important to be clear and consistent with the boundaries you have set with your child, and make sure that everyone keeps to their side of the agreement.
     Think together about offline activities they might enjoy. Some children and young people game a lot because it feels like a space in which they are accepted, and they haven’t been able to find this offline. Talk with them about other fun and creative activities they might enjoy doing alone, with peers or with the family, which they can try alongside gaming.
    Avoid arguments when emotions are running high. Try not to react or argue back when your child is feeling worked-up, as this will escalate the situation. Give yourself and your child a chance to have some space before you talk.
