Symptoms of depression include feeling sad for a long period of time, sleep issues, irritability, change in appetite, fatigue, lethargy, decreased sex drive, thoughts of suicide. Teenagers may withdraw from some people if they are depressed, may be extremely sensitive to criticism, and have unexplained aches and pains.
People can suffer from depression at any age, but I presume it is not correct to describe it as 'teen depression' unless you are teenaged.
It is rare, but some teens get a condition called teen depression. It's kinda like depression for adults. I have teen depression and you can take pills for itfrom the doctor if it is teen depression.
Symptoms for teen depression are very similar to the symptoms for adult depression. Withdral from people and things that they usually associate with is one symptom.
because depression is difficult to recognize
Depression in teens can get very serious. I remember when I had depression, it got as far as suicide pacts. If you know a teen that has depression, call a doctor and have them tested. Don't be afraid to get the teen mad because in the end, he/she will be very happy.
no i dont but i guess if something bad was to happen i would it just depends on what kind of person you are or how your family is. You are the only person that can make your self go in depression as a teen.
being a teen, there are too many changes and often no power to affect any of them
