Depression

- is a widespread and significant medical condition that has a negative impact


on how you feel, think, and act.
-
- Depression is a state of mental illness. It is characterised by deep, long-
lasting feelings of sadness or despair.
-

- Is a mood disorder characterized by intense and persistent negative


emotions. These emotions negatively affect teenager’s lives, causing social,
educational, personal and family difficulties.

- Depression is different than feeling sad or down. It is a medical condition


affecting the way mood is controlled by the brain. Someone with depression
can’t just” snap out of it.” Depression affects the way he or she thinks, feels
and acts. It is a negative outlook through which he or she sees and
experiences the world.

- When Depression happens, it often lasts for many months and then (pero
may pagkakataon na bumubuti ang kaniyang pakiramdam) sometimes gets
better. This called an episode of Depression. Most people who get
depression will experience many episodes during their lifetime. Depression is
often called Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).

- (Kadalasan, yung mga pangyayaring hindi maganda gaya ng pagkawala ng


mahal sa buhay) Sometimes a negative situation like the loss of a loved one,
or severe and prolonged stress will bring on an episode of Depression but
often incidents will occur spontaneously. Depression is not caused by the
usual stresses of life. Depression is often accompanied by feelings of anxiety
and causes significant problems with family, friends, work or school.

- Abuse. Physical, sexual, or emotional abuse can make you more


vulnerable to depression later in life.
- Genes. A family history of depression may increase the risk. It's
thought that depression is a complex trait, meaning there are
probably many different genes that each exert small effects, rather
than a single gene that contributes to disease risk.

- Positive Mental Health: Resilience
- According to the American Psychological Association, Resilience is the
process of adapting well in the face of hardship, trauma, tragedy, threats, or
significant sources of stress, such as family and relationship problems,
serious health problems or workplace and financial stressors. It means
“bouncing back” from difficult experiences.
-
- Resilient teenagers are those who have successfully managed to overcome
feelings of stress and other difficult situations and are ready to enter
adulthood with a good chance of a positive mental health. There are many
factors that contribute to a teenager’s “resilience”. Mahalaga na ang bawat
nakakaranas ng depression ay nakakakuha ng suporta galing sa pamilya o
malapit na kaibigan The most effective one is having a caring relationship
with adults and possess a relaxed disposition in life. Adolescents can use
many strategies, including regular exercise to reduce stress and promote
resilience.
-
- Schools and communities also recognize the importance of resilience and
general “emotional intelligence” in teenagers’ lives. There are courses and
programs for parents and schools that focus on adolescents’ social-
emotional learning coping skills.
-
-
- So to put it all together, resilience is the capacity to recover quickly from
difficulties; toughness.
-
-  the ability to withstand adversity and bounce back from difficult life
events.
