Beware of depression in teenagers, rebellion is just a protective color for depression

We always feel that teenagers who are busy reading have no troubles except studying. Even if they do have troubles, compared with the troubles and pressures of adults, it seems that they are not worth mentioning. But in reality, depression can start at any age, and the adolescent group is the key group for depression. "People's Daily" once reported: "In 2020, the detection rate of depression among adolescents in my country was 24.6%". In other words, almost 1 in 4 children is prone to depression. Source People's Daily Depression is not a fragile heart, nor is it hypocritical. Depression is often caused by genetic, psychological and environmental factors. Adolescents are in adolescence, which is a key stage of growth and development. Their central nervous system is not yet mature, and the secretion of hormone levels is unstable, which is prone to mood swings. At this time, if they face difficulties such as parental expectations, academic pressure, interpersonal communication, etc., they will conflict with their immature minds, making them more likely to become the object of depression.

Adolescents with depression tend to show more insidious symptoms

Although there are "three lows" symptoms similar to adults, namely low mood, decreased behavioral activity, and decreased interest, there are some special points. Teenagers are immature in body and mind, have poor emotional control, and show more intense symptoms, such as withdrawn, angry, bored, and contradictory. It is for this reason that parents are likely to mistakenly believe that the child has entered adolescence and is just a little rebellious, while ignoring the depression hidden under the appearance of rebelliousness. Parents should pay attention if the child has the following manifestations: 1. Emotions are not only continuous sadness and depression, but also irritable, easy to lose their temper for no reason, and full of hostility. 2.

Depression makes children think slowly, it is difficult to concentrate, they are tired of learning, and their academic performance declines significantly. 3. The happiness obtained from the things that I liked before has become less, and the happy memories of the past will not be happy, and I am unwilling to participate in the game. 4. The body is easily tired and the activity decreases. 5. Children's self-evaluation is often biased towards negative, feeling that "no one likes me", "I am worthless", or "it's all my fault" and so on. 6. Become withdrawn, isolate yourself from others. 7. I cry more than before, sometimes for no reason. 8. Appetite has changed, drastically decreased or suddenly overeating. 9. Disturbed sleep rhythm, or even sleepless nights. 10. Inexplicable muscle soreness, headache, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other physical discomforts, I went to check my body, but could not find the reason. 11.
