Editorial
The emotions of teens are very complex things. Teenage depression is
on the raise and I think that it might be controlled or it could decrease if
we just had more people could find away to help teens in need. Teenage
depression isn’t just bad moods. Depression is a serious problem that
impacts every aspect of a teen’s life. Left untreated, teen depression can
lead to problems at home and school, drug abuse, self-loathing even
irreversible tragedy such as homicidal violence or suicide. Fortunately,
teenage depression can be treated, and as a concerned parent, teacher,
or friend, there are many things you can do to help. You can start by
learning the symptoms of depression and expressing concern when you
spot warning signs. Talking about the problem and offering support can
go a long way toward getting your teenager back on track.
I think that school should be more involved with us teen and our
emotions because there is not that many other places that we can go.
Plus we have to go to school five days a week. Schools can play a very
big part in the help with teenage emotion. At a school they can organize
different activities and programs for teen to that will help us control our
emotions in a healthy way. School can also help greatly with sorting out
peoples problem and also I thing that there should a lot more
counselors for schools. Maybe even one for ever student to have.
I also believe that not only schools but parents should also get involved
in helping there own child. Also a parent or close family member knows
that teen the best and he or she might be more willing to take help from
them. Even friends need to take the steps to help a friend that might be
sadder or they are angry a lot. I think that you should help as a friend in
any way. Especially if they’re suicidal and they didn’t want u to tell a
counselor. Its better have a friend that’s mad at you then one that dies.
Overall I think that we need to make more of an effort to helping our
teens out with the emotional problems that we go through as teenagers.
