Teen depression can affect a teen regardless of gender, social background, income level, race, or school or other achievements, though teenage girls report suffering from depression more often than teenage boys. Teenage boys are less likely to seek help or recognize that they suffer from depression, probably due to different social expectations for boys and girls - girls are encouraged to express their feelings while boys are not. Teenage girls’ somewhat stronger dependence on social ties, however, can increase the chances of teen depression being triggered by social factors, such as loss of friends.
Just like True Notebooks, teens suffer from depression and lack the help from parents and teachers. If they cant find the help from the ones they love they would find the love from somewhere else, which would be from the wrong people. Some are mentally unstable but with the right kind of help some of the teens in America would not be serial killers or shooters.
