LoOking inTo DepResSion!!

"There were days i just refused to get out of bed.All i wanted to do was lie in bed and go back to sleep.no matter how much i slept,i still woke up feeling tired!!"





"Going to school was such an agony for me.I could not concentrate.I was not interesting in what was happening around my class.I refused to do my homework and so i was scolded by ny teacher."


Thesere statements expressed by teenagers who went through a period of depression!!
Depression is a medical condition that can affect anyone irrespective of age.
Youths are not spared.In fact,a medical report showed that 20% of adolescents in Malaysia go through periods of depression!!
Youths get stressed over a number of things---exams,family problems,a failed relationship or something as trivial as getting a driver's licence.
When these challenges accumulate and they fear they may not be able to cope,more often that not,these youths end up either engaging in unhealthy activities like experimenting with drugs to release pent-up stress!!
There are times when signs of depression are hidden or masked.
nstead of overtly expressing their sadness,teenagers may express boredom and irritability,engage in risky activities or give assurances to their parentsthat everything juz fine.
Although clinical depression may be diffucult to discern in some,a key indicator of depression is drastic change in the person's eating and sleeping patterns.or observedable throught changes in mood and behaviour!!





~~ The reason i write this article is to express the other face of teenagers ...
