I think that parents don't understand what depression is or at least its deep meaning. Personally I struggle with depression, and typically I don't really share that with most people. If you asked me why i'm depressed, I don't think I could tell you. Us younger girls struggle so much with boys, friends, self view etc. Parents don't get it, so let me help you. Your son or daughter is in school, they will go through things like heartbreak, a loss of a friend, a bad grade and later will be hit with the power society has on us. They are expected to drink or to do drugs and if they don't, they might not be considered "cool". Some people take a loss of a friend or a break up like its nothing and others, (like me) take it hard. I think its because secretly I am sensitive. I come off so confident and like nothing bothers me, but in reality I am hurting so badly. I know there are so many girls and boys who struggle with eating disorders, drug addiction and becoming an alcoholic. These people think by doing drugs or drinking, it numbs their pain and hurting but its only for a little bit, it is not permanent. I want to be happy all the time, and somehow this damn society gets in the way of that every damn time.
