harsh than the cause of adults. In a teens lifetime they have to face many
problems and sometimes they have to experience these problems more than
once. Teens have to deal with peer pressure problems at school, problems at
home, the death of love one and if they are already using drugs this could also
be a cause. Many teens also have to deal with the point in their life when they
wonder if they are attractive to other people, the opposite sex if they do believe
that they are un attractive they will most likely feel as though they have failed at
something. Then they will act as if they no longer care about much at all.

Sometimes these emotions have to deal with homosexuality and finding out
whether or not they like people of the same gender. To many people the idea of
homosexuality is disgusting and most people know how others feel about it so

of their family friends and love ones are homophobic. Another cause of

are in a roller coaster ride for this reason it is hard for anyone even the parents,
to distinguish depression from just a plain bad day. This is why it is important for
parents to know what to look for, otherwise something bad may happened , to go

they are acting when you are not around as some teens becames depressed

An example of the negative cognitive triad themes will help illustrate how the
process of becoming depressed works. Imagine that you have just been laid off
from your work. If you are not in the grip of the negative cognitive triad, you might
think that this event, while unfortunate, has more to do with the economic
position of your employer than your own work performance. It might not occur to
you at all to doubt yourself, or to think that this event means that you are washed
up and might as well throw yourself down a well. If your thinking process was
dominated by the negative cognitive triad, however, you would very likely
conclude that your layoff was due to a personal failure; that you will always lose
any job you might manage to get; and that your situation is hopeless. On the
basis of these judgments, you will begin to feel depressed. In contrast, if you
were not influenced by negative triad beliefs, you would not question your self-

Let's say you want to accomplish a thing called a 20 foot trench and all you have
is a shovel and you are not used to digging trenches. After the first few feet you
will have sore hands, a sore back, and be pretty tired. You may find that within a
few more feet you are so exhausted that you are disabled by it and cannot
accomplish your task. If you do finish, you will be sore for days. You will be
mentally fatigued, emotionally spent, and may even have relationship troubles
because you cannot perform your relationship skills as well as usual. This all
seems pretty normal because that is what happens when we create "things." We
expend a great deal of energy accomplishing them and suffer pain from the

So the social group exposed to the lowest stressors (living the most
privileged life) may at the same time be most vulnerable to each additional
stressor. They have not learned to cope with stress as effectively as those who
experience it more.
This is potentially the cost of living an easier, and therefore, less stressful life.
Men may also be vulnerable to the effects of stress because they may perceive
depression as a weakness. They may also define talking about emotion, and

These beliefs strongly shape behaviors of men who are in need of mental health
care, and make men vulnerable when stress and emotional problem happens. All
these result in men ignoring depression when it develops, and avoiding care
This also partially explains why more men with depression kill themselves
