Do Children Suffer Symptoms Of Depression?

People with symptoms of Depression can be from all walks of life and all age groups, as well as children. There is no age limit for a person to experience symptoms of Depression.

All people with differing backgrounds can experience differences with their symptoms of depression varying from person to person. Often children, young person or older people with symptoms of depression, can be referred to as being moody or depressed.

​People of all ages are affected by what is going on around them in their daily lives. With a young person,  the behaviour of their parents is a major influence on their mood and responses. When young people or children are constantly witnessing friction between the parents, or the young person is being bullied from siblings or other children at school, then often the child will display a flat depressed mood, and even feel angry sometimes. 

​Mental Health, Depression & Grief

​When a child experiences the loss of someone they love, such as in the case of a divorce or the death of a close family member, they can sometimes miss out on the emotional support they need at this time from the adults in their life. Sometimes when adults are grieving, they can easily overlook the emotional support needs of the children.

​Bullying

​Often some children are unable to express how they feel, to their parents or the supervising adult concerned, what is happening to them when they are being bullied. Sometimes the adults do not take their complaints seriously seriously and of course the child can be faced with no choice but to suffer depression in silence. Today, bullying behaviour is becoming highlighted at schools and the behaviour is deemed highly unacceptable and not to be tolerated.

​Family Support Services And Information For people With  Mental Health Illness & Depression

In today’s modern society, media attention has shown the episodes of depression that a person or child can experience and and do feel.

Parents and guardians now have services available to address the symptoms of Depression, such as, the support, information, treatment and resources to get children who may be suffering from the symptoms of depression, some much needed professional help.
