Teenage depression is more common than many parents think—it’s possible that as many as one in five teens suffers from clinical depression. However, even though it’s common, anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts should always be taken seriously.

If your teen exhibits the following symptoms for more than two weeks, he or she may need help:
  • Markedly worse school performance
  • Hopelessness
  • Withdrawal from loved ones, friends, and activities he or she used to like
  • Lack of energy or motivation
  • Anger
  • Excessive worrying or fear
  • Never feeling worthy or “good enough,” guilt, and poor self-esteem
  • Lack of focus or concentration
  • Changes in eating habits or sleeping patterns
  • Substance abuse
  • Suicidal thoughts or actions
  • Problems with authority

If your teen shows these symptoms, he or she should see a professional. At LifeLine for Youth, we offer professional, effective anxiety and depression treatment. With our support, your teen can heal, learn to cope with overwhelming feelings, and get back on track.
