Help Teens Understand Mental Illness — With Zero Prep on Your Part!

Let’s be real—talking about mental health with teens is important… but it’s also tough to do well when you’re juggling a million other responsibilities. That’s why I made this Mental Illness Activities Pack for Teens: so you can teach critical concepts with confidence and no extra stress.

Whether you’re teaching in-person or online, this pack has you covered. It’s designed to help your students think critically, practice empathy, and build awareness—without adding more work to your plate.

I recommend using this resource with Secondary School students. These activities are also suitable for ESL/ELL students whose level of English is Intermediate (B1-B2) or Advanced (C1-C2).

PRINT AND DIGITAL VERSIONS OF THE ACTIVITIES ARE INCLUDED.

** An original non-fiction reading passage (3 pages) to help students understand mental illness. Includes: definition of mental illness; the difference between mental health and mental illness; how common mental illnesses are; common mental illnesses in teens (depression, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, self-harm and suicidal thoughts); what mental illness feels like—and how to get help; how to help a friend; Myths vs Facts.
