Understanding Teen Depression
Depression is more than just sadness or a bad day; it’s a “mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest.” – Mayo Clinic
Teenagers with depression may experience behavioral health differently than adults, and understanding these differences is crucial for effective treatment.
Teen depression often manifests as overwhelming irritability, or frustration, even over minor issues. Teenagers may also experience significant changes in appetite and sleep patterns, loss of interest in activities they once enjoyed, difficulty concentrating, decreased confidence, and feelings of worthlessness or guilt.
At Horizon Recovery, we’re trained to recognize and treat these unique symptoms, offering specialized adolescent & teen residential mental health treatment in Phoenix, AZ.
We provide a comforting environment where troubled teens feel seen, heard, and, most importantly, understood.
