RATES OF MAJOR DEPRESSION SKYROCKET AMONG GIRLS AS THEY GO THROUGH ADOLESCENCE.
A GOVERNMENT SURVEY USED TO ASSESS DRUG USE AND MENTAL HEALTH FOUND...
GIRLS BETWEEN TWELVE AND SEVENTEEN HAD TRIPLE THE RISK OF A MAJOR DEPRESSIVE EPISODE WHEN COMPARED TO BOYS OF THE SAME AGE.
THE SURVEY STATES NEARLY A MILLION AND A HALF GIRLS REPORTED A MAJOR DEPRESSIVE EPISODE IN THE PAST YEAR.
A REPORT RELEASED BY THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ADMINISTRATION (SAMHSA), STATES THE RISK OF DEPRESSION GROWS WITH AGE...
ONLY FIVE PERCENT OF TWELVE YEAR OLDS REPORTED SUFFERING A DEPRESSIVE EPISODE IN THE PAST YEAR..
BUT BY THE TIME GIRLS TURNED FIFTEEN.. THAT NUMBER INCREASED TO FIFTEEN PERCENT.
AND RESEARCHERS SAY WHILE ADOLESCENT BOYS DO EXPERIENCE DEPRESSION... THEY DO IN MUCH LOWER NUMBERS.
ONLY FOUR AND A HALF PERCENT OF BOYS BETWEEN TWELVE AND SEVENTEEN REPORTED HAVING A MAJOR DEPRESSIVE EPISODE IN THE LAST YEAR.
