Teenage Depression

Unlike popular belief, depression is a chemical disorder in our bodies, not a mental sickness. Teenagers may feel insecure to talk, and further treat depression due to their little knowledge in the subject. Some may see it as a difficult subject to talk about, when it should not be. Truth is, that it should be treated as any other medical emergency, such as braking an arm or any other health threatening situation. Some may choose to go through the depression, other may choose to take their own lives. 600,000 teens will try to commit suicide each year. If you can help people which are depressed, you may save a life.
Do the Right Thing

-Jorge Otaola 12th
