BEHAVIOUR INDICATING SERIOUS DISTRESS
· Self-neglect – not eating or paying attention to personal grooming.
· Sleep problems – feeling tired, unable to sleep, waking early.
· Not going to the gym.
· Refusing to participate in work, education or association.
· Marked change in mood or behaviour; acting out of character (low or high).
· Lack of motivation, such as not planning for release

There may be a tendency to treat signs of ***distress behaviour*** as ‘normal’ and in a sense it is – a normal reaction to a stressful situation. But this should not minimise the real distress that juveniles may be experiencing coming to terms with court proceedings, first night in custody, a sentence or dealing with a change of establishment or a problem at home
