Yesterday Kate Middleton gave mental illness her much-needed support by writing a message from Kensington Palace’s Instagram account, asking her friends and followers to listen to a podcast about childhood mental health issues. Try as we may to make mental illness as easy to talk about as the stomach flu, we just aren’t there yet. We might joke about taking mental health days, but if we actually took one? Well, most people would think we’re faking it.

As adults we have the power to go to a support group or to see a therapist, but children can’t. They need a grown-up’s help to get there—and what if parents are embarrassed or ashamed to admit that their kid suffers? Well, we might end up in the place we are now.

Kate hones in on the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families’ Child in Mind podcasts, which teach parents how to deal with mental illness. Its first episode? Dealing with childhood anxiety.

We might be adults here, but the stuff that plagues us now starts early. So don’t be shy if you suffer, too—princess’s orders.
