Teenage girls are at an especially high risk for depression. As
the rate of depression rises, so does the teen suicide rate.
About ten percent of Americans suffer from a depressive illness. Some experts estimate that
four to five percent of adolescents suffer from teen depression.
Without treatment, this illness can last for weeks, months, years or a lifetime and can
have impact on all aspects of life.
All this information sounds, um, well, depressing? Fortunately, There is Hope.
