    Dr. Michele Borba answered:
    Cyberbullying can cause severe emotional damage and lead to depression. Please monitor your child carefully. Tune into her emotional signs right now but also keep a closer eye on her behavior over the next few weeks. Watch in particular for behaviors that are not typical for your child: a sudden change in mood, sleep, appetite or the inability to focus or just handle life. Seek the help of a trained mental health professional.
