First Signs of Teen Depression
Many times parents of teens who have tried to or have committed suicide struggle with the idea that there were signs of their teen's depression that they missed. In an effort to help the parents in our site's community, I have put up a page where parents of teens who have dealt with depression can share the first signs that they've noticed.
One dad shares: "My 18 yr old son has lost interest in almost everything. Over a number of years his interest in various things (sports, etc.) has been reduced, he is not interested in much (barely interested in online gaming, used to be his passion), sleeps because he is bored (not tired), no interest in friends."

They are better able to form good habits based on the praise they receive. It is simple to learn how to praise a teen, you just need to remember to do it until it becomes second nature.
