Jamie Wells

Depression often referred to as the "silent killer," manifests differently in teenagers compared to adults. Adolescence is a crucial period marked by significant physical, emotional, and social changes, making teenagers particularly vulnerable to mental health issues like depression. Despite its prevalence, teenage depression is often misunderstood, overlooked, or dismissed as typical mood swings or teenage angst. In this exploration, we delve into the complex landscape of teenage depression, uncovering the silent struggles faced by adolescents and shedding light on the impact it has on their lives.
