shootings in recent years. That is just one outcome of teen
depression.

Teens need support
and understanding if they are to make the transition into adulthood
in a healthy and well-adjusted way. Unfortunately, many parents do
not know how to deal with their teens' odd behavior. Often, they
blame much of it on moodiness or attention-seeking.
Your teen is not
unlike every other teen out there. They are all struggling to get
through that intermediate stage between childhood and adulthood.
It's a time of
swirling confusion.
It's a time of
conflict, peer pressure and physical and emotional changes.
Many teens fall into
depression at this crucial period in their lives. Too many
conflicts. Too much that they don't yet know. They haven't acquired
the skills to deal with the changes that seem to arise every few
weeks.
Teens are dealing
with more than peer pressure. They are struggling to understand the
changes that are overtaking their bodies. As their hormones shift,
they experience new emotions and urges. Their thoughts are in the
process of maturing, but they still live partly in childhood with
some lingering childhood thoughts and attitudes.
They haven't yet
developed the skills to handle adult-related issues like choosing a
career, entering the workforce and becoming more responsible. It's
no wonder teen depression can overtake them.
Are you still unsure
if your child is at risk? Here are a few more important facts you
should know.
Depression is
directly linked to:
substance abuse
delinquency
rebelliousness
destructive behavior
violence
sexual promiscuity
and other problems
If your teen shows
any of these signs, you have a problem.
Are you ready to
educate yourself so you can help your teen through this
all-important, life-changing period?
That's great, because
I have put together a book that provides everything you need to know
about
adolescence, teen depression and how to spot if your teen is at risk
of suicide. The signs aren't always as obvious as you might think.
