They press My Boy?

One of the most serious problems of the behavior between worried adolescents is depression. He is essential that the parents recognize when they press an preadolescent or adolescent boy, because the treatment is more effective with the early intervention. The most serious consequence of the depression untreated can be risk of the suicide. Therefore, any indication that they have pressed to a boy by six months or must treat more in the same way than you if you saw show of the physical disease in that boy.

One of the obstacles that parents do in front of is that the boy can look like as what many create "teen"-is angered normal, belligerent, null and voidable one, and simply hostile. These behaviors when they are isolated to the events or the short periods of the time can flow are the pains every greater time the adolescence, but when they extend beyond a semester and they look like insurmountable and intrenched, the parents need to look for the intervention before more serious indications appear.

The typical samples of the depression are:

The adolescent cannot look like to make a decision
Level under the frustration
Frequent combats of griterío, often "for no reason"
Deficiency of the interest in its activities generally (social, family, academic, extracurricular)

If his boy says certain indicating things that they indicate the depression, and they remain in this "state of the mind" by more than six months, interventions is hour to look for outer therapy or others. The repeated typical declarations are:

I do not know porqué incomodo, which is the point any thing
Desire that was dead
I cannot make any thing to the right. I am without value. (or variations in this subject)

If his adolescent looks like patch in a pattern that includes some of these behaviors, it is hour to look for therapy and to make sure of its boy treats correctly if he or it suffers of the depression.
