Health care is not only about your body. Sometimes it is about your mind, too. SC Choices can help you to take care of your family in many ways.
Worried about your teenager? From time to time you may notice that your teen seems sad, or you may be worried that your teen is abusing alcohol or drugs. Pay attention to the clues!
Depression and substance abuse are serious issues. It is important to get help for a child who seems troubled -- you may be able to prevent problems that could get worse as your kid gets older.
Professional help is just a phone call away. If you are a part of SC Choices, your health plan or Medicaid doctor will help.
Your doctor can help you get a case manager and connect you to a mental health clinic or professional.
Depression and substance abuse are illnesses, just like a cold or flu. And your doctor can help. If your teen needs help, remember that Medicaid covers treatment for depression and substance abuse.
If you want more information about finding professionals that can help with depression or substance abuse, call your doctor or health plan. You can find out more about your health choices at our Facebook page or Twitter feed, too.
