You are going through a transition phase if you are a teen or a parent of teenage son or daughter. We know that this is the period of great turmoil physiologically and psychologically for your grown up kid. The psychiatrists say that the parent should grow up with the kids to understand their needs and aversions. In most circumstances, the parents often blame their kids for irresponsible behavior forgetting their own pasts. Such and many other things results in a kind of rebel attitude among these teenage children. And when this attitude doesn't get any vent, he or she succumbs to depression.
• Acute depression- In most of the cases, teenage depression is usually momentary or for a small period of time and does not herald any radical change in his or her lifestyle. It may be just in the form of anxiety over examinations, depression as a reaction to some event at school or college, failure in a certain ordeal, fight with a friend or break up with a girl friend. These are the most common causes of teenage depression and usually do not last for a prolonged period of time.
• Parental disharmony- Unfortunately this is a very common cause of teenage depression. Discord among both parents, sudden demise of one of the parent, physical abuse, or undue parental pressures can be the reason for a boy or girl going into anxiety problems or depression.
• Unawareness of self-change- this is the age when a girl or boy undergoes tremendous changes on both physical and mental levels. The physiological changes like getting attracted towards opposite sex, masturbation, etc may cause unnecessary tensions among youth, especially so if these subjects are taboo at home and school. Because of this, the grown up kids may fall prey to wrong information and start feeling guilty leading to depression.
• Family history of depression is also one of the causes of depression.
Because of one or more of these causes, your teenager fails to elicit good things in life and feels everything is too bad here. When he cannot share his thoughts to the near and dear ones at home, he feels further put off from the world. However, your teen needs a proper care and definitive treatment if he is suffering from persistent depression. One of the most important aspects of treatment is a family therapy centered at counseling and behavior therapy for teen and his or her parents. Along with this, drug treatment with anti-depressants may be decided with an expert opinion. Teenage is precious and will never return again. Let's make the best use of it and enjoy life!
