Common Questions and Answers about Depression symptoms for teenagers
depression
s not an easy one for adults. But if the depression has not been treated, it will still be there, and again, drugs don't treat it, they tamp down the symptoms. At that age I'm surprised therapy wasn't tried first, but so it goes.
Yeah, so, I was wondering is it possible for teenagers to have depression... Because I know a few who have alot of the symptoms, and I want to help them but don't know what to do?
This sounds like more than hormones changing. You have all the classic symptoms of depression and it's important to get help so you can nip this in the bud and move on! Talk to your parents, they have to realize that everything has changed with you. If your parents don't take you seriously put it in a letter to them...often when we read something we truly hear what is being said.

I believe it would be a good way to help daily Teen Depression and everyday stress that Teenagers go through. Any Teenager may join this group.
You DO have the classic symptoms of depression. Depression makes one want to sleep all the time, moody, and angry. It may not be severe, but still depression, seek help and you and your doctor decide what is best.
After a year of treatment, vitamin D levels went up slightly in the placebo group, and went up slightly more in the normal-dose vitamin D group -- to 16 ng/mL for girls and to 20 ng/mL for boys. That's well below the 30 ng/mL level the U.S. National Institutes of Health states may be desirable for overall health and disease prevention.
But kids who got 2,000 IU/day vitamin D3 saw their vitamin D levels soar -- to 38 ng/mL for girls and to 35 ng/mL for boys.
Parents will not believe about the teenagers depression. Develop an habit of doing exercises regularly and develop an habit of talking to other people. It protects you from depression and allows you to lead a healthy life.
Hi, I am new here, never posted before but have been "lurking" for over a year. I have been taking vics for years for back pain. I don't take more than I am prescribed, nor do I take more than two at a time.,I am prescribed 6- 5 milligram tablets a day, but I was taking the maximum. I have cut back to 5 a day for two weeks and intend to go down a half a pill everyother week until I am done.
) this procedure is scheduled for this coming Monday and I am having second thoughts about going ahead with the cath, do you think I should get a second opinion and the funny thing i'm a nurse!!! but i've only worked ob/gyn for the last 15years so i'm not familiar with all the aspects of the heart.
Hi I have a major problem. My teenager, who is 18 years old, was charged with a reckless crime. The max sentence is 4 years in prison for this crime. I find myself looking up suicide statistics because I don't think I can handle him going to jail or worse yet prison. I've found a attorney so hopefully he can help .I also have cancer am worried about that. I don't know what to do. How do I survive?
Despite it seeming like it when you are a teenager, sex is not really all mechanics. My husband used to joke that when he was a teenager, "all someone would have to do is look at my *** crosseyed and I'd get a hard-on," and the ready hormone flow of being a teen seem sometimes to provide endless proof of that.
s happy chemicals), books you can get online (they have anxiety work books and depression work books for teenagers on amazon and ebay or check your local library). STaying connected is one of the most helpful things as feelings of isolation compounds the problem. Anyway, let me know how you are doing!
That will make life more difficult and your chances of recovering from depression far less likely. You should see a doctor to be referred to a psychiatrist for a med evaluation and a therapist to receive therapy and discover what may be causing your depression. I would definitely tell your parents at some point.
Over the same time span his calcium hit a high of 10.7 and a low of 10.1. He has been on Vit D supplements for a year - 1000mg D3 - without any increase in his levels. This variability seems odd to me. Does anyone have any insight?
Her doctor is concerned because she said it is quite unusual for a teen to have an elevated thyroid. We are going to have a thyroid ultrasound done. The doctor also said this could be the cause of her wild mood swings. Although they are also talking about Bipolar disorder because of her symptoms and family history.
How rare is hyperthyroidism in young teens, and what other symptoms would she experience?
Her TSH was 2.86 and her Thyroxine total was 9.8.
Thank you.
My 16 year old daughter has been diagnosed with hypothyroidism (TSH 11.96) and was put on 75 mg of Synthroid. She has terrible fatigue, headaches and trouble concentrating. After 2 1/2 weeks on the replacement hormone her symptoms have worsened and now her neck is so sensitive that she can't wear shirts that have a collar. After repeated calls to the doctor he increased her dosage to 100 mg and told us to wait for the medicine to take effect.
It's fairly normal for teenagers to wonder about these things. Have you done anything to address your depression?
and it is not normal for all teenagers to feel depressed Hun, You seem like You are going through a really hard time and it might be best if You find someone to speak to about this in person; a school counselor, a local therapist or trusted adult.
You do not have to go through this alone there is always someone wanting to listen and someone who cares, You just need to reach out and let people know You are need of it.
It is really good that You took the time to post on this forum and reach out.
Hi, this is my first time on a forum, I have been feeling really down lately. I have been close to tears or crying every night lately and I have been feeling hopeless. But overall I just feel vulnerable and unsure of myself. Its like I'm having an identity crisis. I have been having a hard time being myself and I'm becoming more and more disconnected from my friends and family.
It saddens me when I hear of people so young suffering with this x
But as the ladies above have said teenagers generally have a good prognosis so the important thing for you to do at the moment is to find medications that help you, drink PLENTY of water, increase your salt intake and you could also try wearing compression stockings (not a good look I know - but they help many people).
chest pain, nausea/vomiting, headaches, muscle aches, fear, sleeplessness, problems with concentration, loss of interest, etc... It's really important for you to get this treated soon, so that you don't have to feel miserable any longer. It's possible that you may need to seek advice from a professional counselor or therapist that specializes in working with teenagers that have anxiety/depression.
When I was about 27, my doctor diagnosed me with anxiety disorder and fibromyalgia. I became pregnant soon after then felt better for quite a long time. The past 3/4 yrs. I have been feeling very tired. really lack energy and have painful symptoms that chnge from week to week. One day I have terrible shoulder pain. another stomach pains that travel from different parts of my abdomen. One month terrible lower back pain, other days stabbing pains in my legs and arms.
I strongly suggest being very careful espically with teens and anti depressants... I took them for a few years.. and now I don't take them... however I have always had more anxiety then depression...
