    Favor needed. We're trying to raise awareness of how common it could be for a child to experience depression despite the statistics. If you've personally experienced depression yourself as a child or know someone who has, could you consider sharing this video to help generate more awareness. If you did, let us know so we can thank you!

      ALSO ITS THEIR GOVERNING ACTUAL GOVERNMENT RESPONSIBILITY TO TAKE CARE OF US. the phone one pisses me off cause I use it to ignore all the toxicity and than I just end up being called addicted to it. Which I may be but like then the parent also sits around the house on a device all day so I don’t wanna hear that it’s my damn phone anymore.

    But instead of that, u decided to send me to the mental hospital just because you dont want to deal with me. You forced me to go to school. Whenever I tried to talk about my feelings, you always turned it into an argument. u never trusted me and went on my phone thinking im hiding something from you… or told me im just overreacting, then you questioned why im not talking anything with you anymore… I WONDER WHY. Whenever you saw me struggling, you always made it about yourself, you told me “you are hurting me so much, im so disappointed…” MOM, IM THE ONE WHO IS HURT. Dont make that about yourself… and then called me “ungrateful” for that. Why cant you just accept that im mentally ill and its not my fault…? Why can’t you just support me for at least once? Why?

I was mostly emotionally exhausted and with a mental breakdown so in the middle of her yelling I started to cry hard. I couldn't stand her, then she was like *why r u crying? Did I hit you or what?* I was so bad I started to cry harder then two days passed and we didn't talk about it anymore. And that's how it's going.

      Sometimes it’s best to not just hope longer for the parents to change and listen to you because they won’t just change like that out of nowhere , maybe it’ll be best when you need to distance yourself from them carefully and try to get help from other people who will be on your side. It’s a hard step to take , to open up and trust someone. Sometimes it could be you ask help from the wrong people but you can’t give up on yourself. I know that it will get better for you. Maybe not necessarily your parents but I think that you can do it. You’re worth to be listened to and supported.

      I do all of this except no.6 and no.7. I believe that school's the only thing I'm good at and I don't want my parents to stress about me. Even though studying more, gives me more stress, it's better than getting compared to the neighbor's child, a classmate, or a friend. Ever since I was a child, I've always been an honor student (except 3rd grade) so my parents expect me to either get better grades or maintain my good grades. Whenever I get an 87, 88, or 89, in a subject (that breaks the 90+ grade streak) they make me feel that they're not contented, and say that I should study harder even though I always give it my all.

      I showed all of these signs and much worse ones as well, at the age of 17 (3 years ago). My mom, her friends, and my ex boyfriend. All insisted that I was "fine" and would try to lecture me on how I needed to stop being dumb, gross and lazy. My grades in school were all A's - C's but then my grades suddenly dropped, when I started becoming badly depressed. My ex was like "I can't be with a girl who's not very smart and lied to me about it all this time, so fix your grades or I'm breaking up with you." That same week he also cheated on me with his ex and treated me like absolute trash. Jokes on him though, I got tired of his BS and dumped him almost 2 years ago.

      I show all these signs but in 6th point instead of school its home. I don't know if I'm depressed or it's a phase/hormonal changes as I'm very cheerful when I'm home alone. When I'm alone I do home alone concerts, watch anime, write songs (mostly sad), love too look at sky & star gazing. But i kinda lost all these connections with friends i feel like an outsider even after years of friendship i know they welcome me, still. I eat healthy food but still i feel i have no energy. I feel immediate mood swings, sometimes very severe like i wanna fall off this building..idk. i know i should be alive ..i got good grades too. I don't have anyone even if people are around..idk. I'm only 17 i don't know anything. Mine is not a toxic household but still i feel toxic as my parents keep quarreling. I wrote a song on that too.

    I am now 61. I have dealt with depression much of my life. Looking back I see that during my early years of school it wasn't so much depression but stress.
    I hated school (though I always got very good grades with little effort). Most of it was pointless busy work. And, I am very introverted. I now see that the stress was from having to interact with people for an entire day.
    I'd leave home at 7:30 for an hour's bus ride over unpaved rural Iowa (very bumpy, with lots of stopping and starting). I am prone to motion sickness so this could be an ordeal. Classes started at 8:30 and finished at 3:30. An even longer ride home (we were toward the end of the route) in an overheated bus full of noisy kids, finally getting home at 5:00.
    Years later my mother would remark that she almost had to push me out the door in the morning, I hated it so much.
    That's a 9 1/2 hour day for a 6 year old kid. How did anyone wonder why I hated it?

    All here, teens being depressed or teens that had depression, it's sad how we had learn to cry in silence so no one would come at your room and tell you "Why are you crying?" and if you tell them they would take away from you everything that makes you happy. The good thing is we will all talk to our kids and ask them how they feel so they don't experience depression like we did.

I suck at figuring out what to do without a list so my 1st 2 years were hell my puppies were what got me through. It didn't help that I'm taking all AP or gifted classes in all but math and some are easy (science history) others (English) were hell as its more creativity instead of lists and I never properly learned Grammer idk how to use a fricking comma so yeah.

    I am a 12 year old and when i saw this vidio pop up i couldnt help but watch it. a little while ago i did think i might have depression, but i put those thoughts out of my head. some time after i started homeschooling i felt really anxious around people and i started feeling more comfort from eating. i also found that recently i have been listening to a lot of music with names like "Anxiety" or "fake fine" and even things like "this is what sadness feels like" and "im not ok". i have also been a good artist since i learned how to use a pencil, but i have also been recently drawing ghost chibis or anime girls that are lying on ground dead. another symptom i have noticed from here is sleep. i have often, even if its past 1 am i connot fall asleep. there are two more as well. i often get grumpy when i have three pages of work that i have to do, and feel overwhelmed. i have also cried for no reason at times. i tell my parents i dont know why im crying, but really i can feel that it was built up saddness. i also tend not to cry when a great-grandparent dies. sorry i know this commentwas long and this video was meant for parents. i just needed to get this off my chest

    I'd like to thank this channel for helping me. In middle school, I had developed depression. It ruined my life and it ruined my relationship with my friends and family. I realized what it was before my parents did, and I have no idea whether or not I would've gotten the help I needed if it weren't for videos like these. It was because of these videos that I was able to identify the cause, and I don't think my parents would have ever realized that I was dealing with depression, since it had manifested itself in extreme irritability and moodiness, which my parents had perceived as typical teenage behavior.
    I'm in high school now and I've still been struggling with depression since then, but I was able to get help for it and I can imagine it would've been much worse had it not been for Psych2Go. I love what y'all do and I hope your videos can help many more people :)

      This is so accurate it makes me sad. I told my parents that I thought the reason I was having trouble sleeping was because I had depression, and they told me it was because I was always on my computer (which I use to connect with friends and distract myself from the real world) and cut down my screen time. It got worse after that.

    Most comments are from young ppl and it really touches my heart cause when i was a teen I didn't understand why I always felt lonely and hopeless and in my birth country (Dom.Rep.) depression isn't something ppl really talk about much as "we don't get depressed " lol i was diagnosed during my pregnancy at 24yrs. Now I'm 34 and now that I understand my symptoms I'm more patient with myself because i know it will pass. Now I'm concerned about my almost 11yrs son cuz there's been a few changes in our lives this past year and I've noticed a few changes on him that now that I've watched this video i can see some little red flags that will help me help him with his emotions. Thank you!
    Oh! And kids... please talk to your parents, they really want to know how you feel and what demons you're dealing with even if they don't understand at first, sometimes it's hard for some people to break that stigma that Depression doesn't happens to kids... talk to them because they will be there for you. I know i would.
    Good luck to y'all ❤

You have to go” it was hot and I was miserable and the whole thing was so boring too I made up an excuse saying I was sick but they didn’t care I have feel I have to be around everyone in the daytime and i don’t like it at night tho?

    I literally have all of these symptomps as a child, especially about school. The actual reason why children hate school is the system. Like I would just quit school if there wasnt a thing called "Diploma" which gives you a chance to have an actual job. Once I felt very sick and so I took a break from school and started studying on home. I started to think that homeschooled people were very lucky because it is alot better than the school. There are no annoying people trying to offend you in front of 24-29 people. And the best thing about being homeschooled is that you are training yourself. Most of the students get bad grades n' stuff just because they cant understand the teacher. School is actually something stupid to me. No one can explain a thing in a way that everyone can understand. School ahead alot of other things give children depression, which I already experienced. Example; being bullied of your age or different reasons. Now cyber-bullying might cause depression on children. Minors or teenagers actually need to be a little careful about it while talking to children because there are some very effective people out there like me. And I assure you, those days when I was like 11 or 12 I got bullied on my age alot. No one is born 17 they also forget that they were childs once or at least had their "cringe" moments. But they literally affect children's mental statement by that. After I got bullied for like 3-4 times I seriously quitted playing on laptop or on phone for a long long time. That also affected my grades according to my depression. So if a minor or a person over 13 like me is reading this comment, please ave a little empathy to the children.

Not having my phone would make me worry even more than I already do and I’d just want to stay in bed all day drowning in my own self pity :/

    One of the best things my mother ever told me she told me because I was in my teens and very depressed. Depression in teens is not new. It is at least thousands of years old.
    My mother told me, "If anyone tells you these (teen years) years are the best years of your life, don't believe it!" That kept me aluve, literally, through those years.
    Sometimes, one needs to know "this, too, shall pass."
    I have chronic clinical depression. I did not take meds for it until I was in my early forties and unable to function. It was not because my parents didn't think meds could help me when I was young. The medicines were not there!
    My point is, as children and teens, we need help, but we also need to be assured that depression as a teen or even child, is not unheard of and that this will pass. And that if we need help the parents do a thorough job of making sure they are bringing the child to a psychologist who is not a "one saw fits all" with a preset idea of treatment modalities. And, that the person is well-respected in the mental health community and is not a psychologist because of his or her unresolved issues. But to also make sure their own parenting is one of firm love.
    There are times when the " professional" makes matters worse, not better.

      Honestly, while I try to be forgiving and understanding-
      People like that can seriously just go to hell already, since they'll probably never change without the fear of death.
      If you don't care enough about your own child to help them through mental health because you think it will "ruin your reputation" then you are both heartless and stupid.
      Honestly, you've got a good case for something legal there-
      Don't really know how to phrase it, but accounting for the most basic mental needs of someone should be important.
      Like, I'm generally for small government, but if a kid is dealing with depression and their parent is doing nothing for them there should be a way out, and a way for the parent to be legally reprimanded for being a piece of shit.
      (I know this is your mother and you probably, hopefully love her, and I hope she has some good in her, but seriously, thats so unbelievably shitty I can't even imagine)

He has narcissistic personality disorder, and so more often than not he believes that anything he doesn't understand/know already is stupid or incorrect and that everyone around him knows less about any given subject than he does. I've wanted to open up for so long but it never goes well. I once tried to tell my dad about how I felt like my older sister was shoving me around and treating me like trash and he said it was all in my head and that all younger siblings feel inferior to their older siblings because his little sister oBviOusLy felt inferior to him while growing up.

      Parent's don't understand that lashing out at their kids only makes depression worse and shows that they don't care or don't care to understand.

    I’m 12 turning 13 in exactly 2 months:
    1:33 to be honest I get extreamly irritated with my family especially with my brother. Even though that’s normal for some reason the most quiet thing my brother does will come to my attention and make want to hit something/someone.
    2:27 rotting in bed with my Spotify soundtrack playlist is way nicer than anything else. When my parents (for example) tell me to clean up my room, make my bed, brush my teeth and do my homework, ill forget half the things before even doing anything else and I just think: “yknow what? Going into my bed and taking a nap to escape reality seems like a great idea!!”
    3:11 I hate social events with all my hearts. Going in a festival? No, I’m noise sensitive and hate socializing. Going shopping? I’d rather do that at home than go out, I don’t have the energy.
    3:37 wait now that I think about up I haven’t eaten anything today. It’s already 11pm. Sometimes I just skip lunch and dinner because I don’t feel like eating.
    4:21 I have unhealthy coping methods !!
    4:43 I talk back to my old teacher because she called me a bitch and screams at me in class. She knows I’m noise sensitive. Hi Mrs.Maggraff how ya doing :) ?
    4:43 my grades arnt bad but they’re worse than the last few years for sure.
    5:36 rotting in bed> going out with friends. Saying you don’t have time to hangout but all you do all day is lying in bed and feeling drained > socializing w/friends.
    My parents haven’t noticed anything because I’m their perfect little daughter who would never be depressed, besides I’m way too young! I can’t be sad ! -my family’s words.
    I would love to trust them with my feelings but at the end of the day, we know they aren’t to be trusted.

I don’t feel as though I can talk to them about the hate that I have for myself. I think that this is due to the fact that we haven’t built up much trust. They don’t let me do many things like go to parties or sleep over with friends. They helicopter me and control my life. I think that it is why I have trouble opening up.

In response, she printed out an article about teen depression, knowing the print was too small for me to read, and left it on my bed without a comment. Years later, when I’ve managed to get a slight grip on my depression, my stepmom started taking note of my mainly wearing long sleeves. She came in and, albeit awkwardly, asked me directly about it. I really appreciate this about her because it showed me that she really does worry about me. Don’t worry, anybody reading this, I don’t do anything involving SH.

    y'know, my parents allowed me to open up about my feelings, I was fine with that at first because I could finally spill the jar (release my emotions), but now, it feels like they are forcing me to open up, even if I don't want to, my dad, won't let me go anywhere to express my negativity and instead forces me to open up and its uncomfortable.
    This year, I'm giving a chance to my parents to change, they have good intentions and I know they didn't mean to uncomfort me in any way. It's okay to open up, but it's also important for people to give you space when you need it.

My mom did this to me 4 hours before im typing this because i was sleepy from staying up too late, also whenever i get tired from doing exhausting things like hoping around to make my baby sister happy, i get scolded because im tired and i want to take a break.

    I did not know it until I got in my 30s that I was depressed as a teenager. I lost so much weight, I stayed in my room all day, and was not talkative. My parents were so unattached to me till they either did not notice, or did not care. If you have parents who actually will put anything including themselves on the back burner for you, you are blessed. And if you have a parent who is even watching this to see the symptoms of depression, you are blessed. And you as a child should NEVER take your parents for granted. You as a child who is loved, should NEVER want your parent unhappy because you are unhappy. Be thankful!

It really infiriurates me, I know he isn't the best person and he did some bad things, but I am able to judge his actions by myself (actions that my mom never even mentioned to me, I found out from other sources all by myself), and wether or not he is a good person, he is sort of an okay dad, just how she is sort of an okay mom, and I love them both a lot, even if they don't love me as much as I do, and it really makes me mad when someone trash talks someone I love, I can't stand it (sorry if what I wrote doesn't make that much sense, I just wanted to rant a bit)

      While my oldest sister is little miss perfect, married, working and pregnant. My brother and I are both introverts, probably have depression and are just struggling overall.
      The ONE time I asked my mom to take me to the psychologist she just brushed me off and said later, then she said the pills were going to be too pricey and I'd get addicted.
      And when I do something she doesn't like she keeps telling me to not be like my brother.
      And it pisses me off SO MUCH.
      Because she won't help us but she also expects us to magically push through and get out of depression.
