Depression is one of the major problems we face in our society and even the word at large. It happens to be more rampant among our youths and even teenagers these days. We see some people who are victims of this but are we are unaware because they put on smiles on their faces like everything is okay but in the real sense they are not. Depression is a silent killer that should be dealt with.
It is a very serious matter especially when it has to do with people who are still very much young. It is something that starts gradually. At the first stage it may seem harmless but if left for long unattended to it may turn to something else. Depression is a very terrible state for a teenager to be in. It is not something that should be overlooked.
Teenagers who have fallen victims to this need all the help they can get. The best help they can get and where it can be found is in the Word of God. There are various reasons as to why a teenager can go into depression. It could be by reason of when the family they are in is one in the relationship is not going as smooth as it ought to.
It could also come by feelings of unworthiness or inferiority complex because they see themselves as not meeting up to the standards of their mates. But what serves as a remedy to this is by letting them know that regardless of how they are they are acceptable before God. God is the only one who they should be concerned about of what He thinks of them and not the opinions of man.
