Depression can happen to anyone, but it can be particularly difficult to recognize in teenagers alongside typical adolescent behavior and changes. In this module, we’ll explain the difference between depression and feeling sad. We’ll talk about the symptoms of depression, and how those can look differently in high schoolers so that they can recognize the warning signs in their peers as well as in themselves.
