The word depression is being used very often in daily life by all .Massive impede o person’s life is depression. Depression is not only eating the person’s growth but devastating entire life. The reasons are innumerable to count. However, this problem is very common among teens. The teen depression is ruling the mind in huge manner and the result is distressing. Usually, it starts to engulf the person slowly, but swallow the person entirely on later stages if left untreated. The self improvement of the teen is never been easy because of this nuisance. This drastic problem not only disturbs the affected teen, but also the neighbors. Hence, the affected teen must be treated well in advance to avoid any mishap treated well in advance to avoid any mishap
Many numbers of depression symptoms are vivid among these affected teens. The main symptoms are loneliness and disgusting mood always. These teens are not socially amicable and would behave differently. They would not concentrate on any important thing in this world even their life. Instead, they look morose and restless. Sometimes, these teens could try to end their life for inane reason. So, the issue must be addressed before the teen is subjected to violence, which may happen on extreme condition.
Once the symptom is seen, it is good to speak to the concern teen in amicable way any interruption.

Streamlining the teen crisis would dilute the issue to maximum level instead of questioning him on his doings. Lots of treatment methods are available to cope with the teen depression and it is better to go for medication on expert’s advice only.

why do you place the blame on the person that is suffering from depression.
depression is not a state of mind, an attitude or a personality flaw. it's a medical condition.
it's a chemical imbalance in the body that produces an artificial feeling of extreme sadness, no matter how good your life is. the emotion is not real, but you still suffer. it's a horrible horrible illness.
it IS dangerous, just like diabetes is dangerous.
criticising someone who is suffering for an illness and acting like they can sort out their chemical imbalance by thinking differently just increases the social stigma.
and ANY medication should only be taken on expert advice. but can you think of any other illness where you would advise someone against taking medication for it? would you advise someone not to take medication for Diabetes? why is there a stigma to taking a medication to address a chemical imalance in the body if it's the brain that doesn't produce it at the right level, but not if it's the pancreas?
yes, some depression can be improved through good diet and regular exercise to help rebalance the chemicals, but why stigmatise people who that doesn't work for?

the trouble is, often when you're suffering from depression, even getting out of bed feels too much like hard work, and you crave less healthy foods.
it's not a cure, I don't beleive that there is a cure. it's a way of managing the condition that some people find really helpful. for some people, it can be the difference between needing medication or not.
it won't be enough to help everyone, but it can help. a bit like losing weight doesn't make arthritis go away, but it lessens the impact of it on your life, healthy food and regular exercise can lessen the symptoms of depression in the less severe cases.

If you need a POV for the "Article" you have written here it is. The first paragraph is too generalized and is not supported by concrete matter. Also the use of words like 'disgusting' and 'insane' are not liked. Finally, the sentences are too short and it feels as though some kid has written it.
Other than that it is ok.

I believe depression is more of a spiritual attack than medical reason. However, that is not a popular view on it since it would mean that evil does exist. I do agree with you that depression is a serious issue. I just do not agree with how they suggest to treat it.

yes Depression is very dangerous. If a person is in depression we should show concern on them and make sure that we are there for them. We need to give support to the person who is in depression. The main important remedy to depression is making sure that we are there for them and removing their loneliness . Depression can lead to any extent. coming to teenagers now a days it's more. If they did wrong or right we have to listen to them carefully and then try to make them understand. Make them to interact more with the people. Moral support is the key to make the person normal. Everything comes next.
Yoga is one of the great tool to get rid of depression.
