Abstract or project description

The aim of this paper is to analyze types of traumas in children, and the various ways it affects brain composition and neurological pathways. When mood regulation pathways malfunction, how do depressive symptoms develop and affect overall wellbeing? Moreover, the text will discuss the importance of trauma-informed treatment and the treatments currently available for victims of mental health disorders. The prevalence of mental disorders is serious, which is why focus must be placed on the many spheres involved with mental health. This way, awareness can be raised about the significance of mental health and how important it is to seek treatment.
