There has been a 77% rise in the number of children needing specialist treatment for severe mental health crisis, according to BBC News.
Some 409,347 under-18s were referred to the NHS in England for specialist care for issues such as suicidal thoughts and self harm between April and October 2021.
Head teachers also report a huge rise in less severe mental health issues.
The government plans 400 mental health teams to support schools by 2023.
The NHS Digital referrals data analysed by the Royal College of Psychiatrists for the BBC, includes the most serious and urgent cases where the child faces an immediate risk from an eating disorder, self-harm or suicidal thoughts. In the same six month period in 2019, there were 230,591 referrals for under-18s.
There were 349,449 under-18s in touch with NHS child and adolescent psychiatric teams at the end of October 2021, the highest number on record.
I wonder how the teaching unions, headteachers, school governors, local education authorities and the Department for Education, all of whom bear responsibility for the closure of schools and the confinement of children to their homes, feel about these figures?

This link will take you to a 9-minute video by a doctor in the United States. Dr. Nathan Thompson had a blood test done on a male patient prior to him having the first injection of “vaccine”. This test showed the patient’s immune system was fit and healthy.
Dr Thomson then had another blood test done on this patient after he had received the first injection of “vaccine”. The results of this blood test showed the patient’s immune system had started to go crazy.
Despite this, the patient decided to have the second shot of “vaccine”, after which Dr Thomson had yet another blood test done. The results of this third blood test showed the patient’s immune system had been completely and utterly destroyed.
After the second shot of “vaccine”, if this patient even pricked his finger with a needle, the infection would probably kill him. He would not be able to fight off any virus or germ that infected him, no matter how innocuous – he probably would not survive a head cold.
Hundreds of thousands of people have been poisoned like this patient. And many people are probably not going to know until a few years into the future how badly their immune systems have been damaged.
This link will take you to a site which will allow you to download videos from Rumble. Download the video and share it on your own sites, and show it to family, friends and neighbours who are not yet convinced of the toxicity of these so-called vaccines.
Dr. Nathan Thompson comes across as very genuine and shows clear hurt at what he’s seeing and dealing with. People will be apt to see that this doctor is telling the truth. If just one more person can be saved from being poisoned, then the time you spend sharing videos like this will be time well spent.
And, the more people’s eyes are opened, the more chance the dead and injured have of getting justice done.
If we simply walk away from what has gone on, then we are actually no better than animals.
Your post is irrelevant to the article, which is about children’s mental health, not vaccines. Please can you delete it and post in elsewhere. Thanks.
Hey Steve, let’s not be so… dictatorial.
Sadly, it’s all relevant.
And this is BTL, after all.
No, he is stating fact, not being dictatorial.
Your post is off-topic.
MY post?
Isn’t it amazing how the trolls went absolutely crazy when I posted clear irrefutable proof from a doctor that the “vaccines” are toxic?
This is known in the psychiatric world as Cognitive Dissonance. The trolls have it embedded in their heads that Bill Gates cannot lie and that the “vaccines” are very safe medications. When they see evidence that proves their embedded beliefs are wrong, their meagre mental abilities cannot handle it, and they lash out with aggressive frustration.
I have friends in the States, and they tell me it’s very common there with the woke Left. Some of them will actually poison themselves rather than admit they were wrong about the gene serums.
I did say “please can you”, you know. Doesn’t sound dictatorial to me.
Himmler was also very polite, I hear.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm,
F-off, you halfwit.
Nee nor nee nor nee nor! The internet police have arrived. ‘ello ‘ ello ‘ello what’s going on here then?
Officer officer this person is posting information not directly related to the article below the line!
Well, well well. What do you have to say for yourself?
I…..
…I’m arresting you Fireweasel for breach of the COVID Misinformation Act 2022, part 8 subsection 4.
Please note: this is not a parody. There really are Internet Police.
“Profanity and abuse will be removed and may lead to a permanent ban.”
Play nicely, children – or we’ll reduce your Social Credit Score and you won’t be allowed to travel by train for a whole month.
When children learn that they and their loved ones have had their immune systems wrecked by these injections how do you imagine it will impact their mental health?
I wonder who sicko “rational” is downvoting? Is it me or Dr. Nathan Thompson? Or both?
Probably both.
Can you believe “rational” has attempted to change his profile on The Daily Sceptic? All he managed to do, though, was change his avatar. He’s now using the name “leek”.
This is “rational’s” former profile page, it is now defunct. Here’s his new profile page under his new “leek” avatar.
The person behind these profiles is one hell of a sad and sick creature. I suspect that “rational”/”leek” or whatever the imbecile now calls him-/her-self might have gotten the “vaccines” and been ill as a result, and now in his/her Personality Disordered rage is attempting to entice others to take them.
There are sly spiteful creatures out there like that, and they are usually to be found on the woke Left. If they get poisoned, it makes them feel a little bit better to see others also get poisoned.
The DS states: Profanity and abuse will be removed and may lead to a permanent ban.
But it won’t ban obvious trolls?!
Not in our two children. We took them out of school in October 2020 after glimpsing the absurdity of the modern school environment.
Have not looked back.
They are out in the park as I write this, selling sweets for profit. Learning about free enterprise and how to take charge of their own destinies.
I haven’t yet taxed their earnings. That lesson will come, though. It must, sadly.
Good for you, and good luck to your children. Have a star.
Oh thanks, ElSabio. My first, I think!
Brilliant, learning and acquiring natural vitamin D at the same time.
Indeed. Their maths skills have come on in leaps and bounds, as suddenly they see the point; for most children, classrooms suck.
I gave my cousin two little books for her pre-teens. They are corkers:
There are pdf’s online if you want to screen them. I’ve a little reading list here if you’re interested.
Cool, thanks.
I still need to finish Deschooling Society, by Ivan Illich. It’s as relevant today as it was in 1971. More relevant, actually…
The angle of the sun’s rays in the winter at this latitude means the atmosphere filters out the UVB that is needed for the skin to make Vitamin D (see The Vitamin D Solution by Dr Michael Holick – the man who discovered the mechanism by which the skin makes Vitamin D).
Fresh air and exercise are always good for health, though!
This is all true, milesahead. That’s why I don’t reproach myself – not too much – for hibernating during winter.
Indeed.
To make up for it, I supplement with D3 and K over the autumn and winter in particular.
The Vitamin D Solution (which I believe is available as a PDF) is a fascinating read.
So is Dr. David Grimes’s blog. As indeed are Dr. Stasha Gominak’s talks on Ytube and some of Dr. Paul Mason’s talks.
Who needs a GP if you listen to what these experts say?
Never mind the children; there’s money to be made….

And just think of the lovely profit which will result from an increase in the use of antidepressants. The past couple of years have been win-win for pharma!
If they didn’t know shoving a mask on kids 6 hours a day and torturing them is wrong and illegal, they should lose their school TEACHING job. If they did know, they should be charged and put in prison.
N.B. Being woke should not excuse these s.o.b’s from child abuse charges.
Adverts on the radio, adverts at the bus stop,adverts on social media, adverts on TV, someone in your class tested positive, the whole class/school year/school is going home, sanitise your hands, everyone is in a mask, cases are skyrocketing, if you don’t have the jab you’ll kill your gran, don’t socialise, etc etc.
I’m trying to imagine how I would have reacted if exposed to all that at say 7 years old. Not well I’d imagine.
Look her in the eyes and tell her you really needed that football practice
Given the volume of serious injury/death reports in sport the last place I’d want a child to be is a football pitch! (If vax’d).

Covidians be responding like ” what about long Covid!?? …cry+mask+blue heart emojis!!”
“I wonder how the teaching unions, headteachers, school governors, local education authorities and the Department for Education, all of whom bear responsibility for the closure of schools and the confinement of children to their homes, feel about these figures?”
Sadly, I don’t think that they give a toss.
and you’ll be branded a granny-killing anti-vaxxer for daring to ask the question.
If it is reported on the BBC you know it is part of a wider establishment agenda involving more state interference and monitoring of what they consider to be their property (your children).
Also ties well into the whole censorship, surveillance and social engineering agenda which always gets linked into mental health.
The fact is the establishment has broken a generation mentally and physically so that they can rebuild them as model citizens for their forth industrial revolution.
We have sacrificed the young to protect the old
It is worth bearing in mind that they’ll be the ones making the decisions soon enough — let’s hope they don’t bear grudges.
To those ‘adults’ who were pro-vax, yes let’s see if the young bear grudges.
It certainly wouldn’t be hard to socially engineer youngsters into hating older generations, especially given the fact that house and asset prices have actually increased during this ‘pandemic’. Usually the younger generation would expect to at least stand a chance to rent or buy a house cheaper after a crisis.
A faint hope, I’d suggest. Apart from what has already been done to them, we have sown a financial wind, and they will be reaping the whirlwind for decades hence. We have also broken the societal norms, and remade them into something despicable, selfish and unthinking. As much as people like teachers and medical persons witter on about how “resilient” the young may be, I think that the examples set them can do nothing but sour the intergenerational relationships.
“I wonder how the teaching unions, headteachers, school governors, local education authorities and the Department for Education, all of whom bear responsibility for the closure of schools and the confinement of children to their homes, feel about these figures?”
They don’t feel anything. They’re psychopaths.
Like almost everything else during these appalling years, it was as plain as a pikestaff to any sentient person, possessed of a modicum of intelligence and perception, that what was being done to, or imposed upon children and young people, was morally, ethically, mentally and physically harmful.
Personally, I’m sick to the back teeth of those people who, having been instrumental in producing these dire outcomes, now have the sheer effrontery and brass necks to start “discovering” the things this article speaks of, and a multitude besides. The salty crocodile tears just make the wounds smart more.
I consider myself fortunate that my school age grandchildren, despite a “revolving door” education for two years, deprivation of socialising with their peers and so forth, seem to have weathered the storm. However, I expect there will be, for many children, some form of PTSD laying dormant, only to emerge in time, in mental health and other problems like criminality, of which there has been an increase in young people in this usually-tranquil part of England.
Excellent post, Hopeless.
On the increase in criminality you witness, is it perhaps just a stress release, to recover from the overly-controlling school environment? My guess is that any – let’s say – boisterous behaviour is exhibited by the smartest children. The ones who are – rightly – losing any respect they may have had for those around them in authority…
Let’s make sure these children become the right sort of anarchists. The ones who will build the New World…
Going mad for a flu risk. Madness itself, squared.
I’m amazed at how a trio of Personality Disordered twats suddenly showed up together on this thread. And demanding that posts be removed, it’s laughable!
I wonder what attracted this trio of Personality Disordered idiots to an article with “Mental Health” in the headline?
The propaganda and bombardment of absurdities accompanying lockdown has been and continues to be an assault on the mind.
I think if anyone wanted to assault your mind, they’d have a hell of a job finding it.
Nice ad hominem.
Since you don’t dispute my point, you obviously lose.
And the likes of the BBC are instrumental in this tragedy.
Jeremy Vine must be gushing with pride for what he’s done
I wish I could give you more upticks.
I watched the beeb for the first time when I was in quarantine and only then did I understand all of the brainwashing that had gone on.
It explained alot about the techniques used to inculcate a sense of fear into the populace.
So sad and unnecessary for what is essentially a flu bug.
The BBC presents Neil Ferguson as a scientist, rather than the fantasist he is
Do they really not see or acknowledge the “cause” and the “effect?” Do they not care?
Unfortunately most of them won’t get it. Child psychiatry provision has been inadequate for decades, and won’t be improved by increased referrals.
‘I wonder how the teaching unions, headteachers, school governors, local education authorities and the Department for Education, all of whom bear responsibility for the closure of schools and the confinement of children to their homes, feel about these figures?’
The guilt rests with Johnsons and his government propaganda specialists.
They are the ones that created terror amongst the population, the unions, teachers etc were victims of this just like the rest of the people.
These people were driven into a state of blind panic by the government, all whilst Boris et al partied because they knew there was no actual threat.
As a teacher, I would have to say ‘only 77%?’
As a doctor, I agree. I suspect there is vast under-reporting. GPs I know we’re trying to do emergency Psychiatric referrals and would be passed on to a telephone community support service. They were so overwhelmed they couldn’t answer most of the time, so the cases were bounced back to the GPs.
I don’t think it will really bother “them” in the slightest.
After all, “them” are at the forefront of wanting kids used as human shields, and the bastards are winning this battle as well.
You don’t realise it but your governments/TRPB are at war with us.
A few kids are just seen as collateral damage – for the greater good you see.
We’ve won nothing while ever those in charge abuse kids in this manner.
And the sheep just quietly graze, aided by the BBC
One of my duties as a teacher during the plandemic was to look after key worker children. It was dreadful and surreal; the general atmosphere was one of fear and danger, I jokingly referred to my institution at the time as Chernobyl High. Children were carefully separated and reprimanded (not by me) when they got too close together. It made me very angry and upset at the time and I still can’t quite believe we did this as a society when we knew very early on that children weren’t at risk from the alleged epidemic. Worse still was the pervasive message that their normal innocent interactions and behaviour could kill others. Typical of the casual and selfish disregard for children’ welfare was a letter I remember reading in my local newspaper in the summer of ‘20 from a local resident angry about the number of children he had seen smoking weed in the town, I wrote back that with all their normal sources of entertainment closed and family homes out of bounds to each other, what the hell did he expect them to be doing? On an anecdotal note too, if my experience in my community is anything to go by, there will be many, many more addiction problems amongst children as a result of the past two years. 2020 and 2021 deserve to live in infamy.
And they went through all that, as far as I can tell, in order to take part in a marketing campaign for new vaccines.
If science can’t be questioned it’s not science anymore. It’s propaganda. They want to rip on people for taking Ivermectin. I researched and saw the evidence on the internet. Research papers are on the internet for those who wants to see. Top respected world doctors are being under defamation by MSM and vaccine manufacturers. I won’t back down recommeding IVM. You can get yours by visiting https://ivmpharmacy.com
Don’t understand why you are downticked
Big tech and social media is the root cause. Make them ill then get them on anti depressants and ultimately get the young well and truly dependant on the system. Social media is a cancer!!
Several times during the scamdemic I thanked the Lord that I didn’t have school age kids. I don’t know how parents coped with the restrictions and watching the appalling consequences for their children.
The SoBs who inflicted it on them ….. Ministers, SAGE, Unions and some teachers should never be forgiven.
