Why do depressed teens resort to violence?
Because where angry,sad,miserable,confused,depressed ALL AT THE same time . we need a realease and if we cant get across our point/how we feel. we get more angry which can result in violence,agresion. Depressed or teens having any mental disorder are more likely to do violent activities. Even teens who join gangs, abuse drugs/alcohol or rebellious are found in doing such acts. The depressed teens become fed up with their life, they are sad, alone and become aggressive in their behaviors. I read a very sad news on a blog quoted"Just recently, CNN reported a heart-breaking news about a Berkeley teen who was convicted in the murder of his father. The victim was raising three kids on his own when one of them, for reasons unknown, murdered him with a gunshot to the head. The judge handling the case found the 16-year-old teen guilty of first-degree murder with an enhancement for using a gun in the death of his 40-year-old father." This is so sad, and we can assume that this act is beyond violence.
