Extractions: Suicide in Youth Carol Watkins, MD According to the Surgeon General, a youth commits suicide every two hours in our country. In 1997, more adolescents died from suicide than AIDS, cancer, heart disease, birth defects and lung disease. Suicide claims more adolescents than any disease or natural cause. Adolescents now commit suicide at a higher rate than the national average of all ages. The rate of adolescent suicide in adolescent males has tripled between 1960 and 1980. Suicide rates for adolescent females have increased between two to three fold. There have been striking increases in suicidal behaviors among African American males, Native American males and children under 14. Much of the increase can be accounted for by deaths due to guns.

On This Page What is Depression? What Causes It? Am I Depressed? Friend Depressed? ... Go Back Home Depression is an illness that can be diagnosed and treated. Depression is more than the blues or the blahs; it is more than the usual, everydays up and downs. When that "down" mood, along with other symptoms, lasts for more than a couple of weeks, the condition may be clinical depression. Clinical depression is a serious health problem that affects the total person. In addition to feelings, it can change behavior, physical health and appearance, academic performance and the ability to handle everyday decisions and pressures. Is it serious? Yes, depression can be very serious! Some of us experience only one depressive episode in our lives, while others experience several recurrences. Some depressive episodes begin with no apparent reason, while others are associated with a life situation or stress. Sometimes people who are depressed cannot perform even the simplest daily activities like getting out of bed or getting dressed; others go through the motions, but it is clear they are not acting or thinking as usual. Some people suffer from bipolar depression in which their moods cycle between two extremes - from the depths of despair to frenzied heights of activity or grandiose ideas about their own competence.

Extractions: You know that these school years can be complicated and demanding. Deep down, you are not quite sure of who you are, what you want to be, or whether the choices you make from day to day are the best decisions. Sometimes the many changes and pressures you are facing threaten to overwhelm you. So it isn't surprising that from time to time you or one of your friends feels "down" or discouraged. But what about those times when a friend's activity and outlook on life stay "down" for weeks and begin to affect your relationship? If you know someone like this, your friend might be suffering from depression. As a friend, you can help. Q.What is depression? A.

Extractions: Barbara Ingersoll, Ph.D. Three-year-old Joshua was a happy, outgoing youngster who enjoyed a great deal of attention from a large, loving family. He became increasingly withdrawn, irritable, and unhappy following a three-week hospitalisation for an acute physical illness. Despite a history of mild learning disabilities and Attention Deficit Disorder, eight-year-old Lee appeared to be doing well at home and in school. When his best friend moved away he became morose and moody. He lost interest in his schoolwork, his appetite diminished, and he spent long hours sleeping or watching television. At age twelve, Elizabeth appeared helpless and unhappy. She seemed unable to handle the ups and downs of daily life at home or in school and, when faced with stress, often cried, "I hate my life" and "I wish I were dead." What's wrong with these children? According to recent public health studies, emotional disorders are widespread in our population. Although poets and artists often portray childhood as a happy, carefree time of life; many children like adults actually suffer from emotional disorders. Depression is one of the most common of these disorders. What is depression?

Extractions: Depression Stress and Anxiety Self Harming Suicide ... Other Stuff The Liaison Education Adolescent Project (LEAP) was set up in 1998. Its aim was to provide a link between the Kari Centre, which is the child and adolescent mental health service for central Auckland, and the community. The work we do is particularly aimed at secondary schools in Central Auckland (all 29 of them!) and is split into 4 main bits. We have a connection in all our secondary schools and try and visit each school a couple of times a year. This is so that school guidance counsellors know who the Kari Centre is and so we can tell them more about our services. Issues normally discussed are things like referral processes, special projects on at the Kari Centre and what's going on in the school. We really look forward to these visits and enjoy getting out into the schools and building strong links. Coming to a school near you soon!

Extractions: STUDY OF TEEN SLEEP DISORDER AND DEPRESSION FLAWED, SAY LOCAL EXPERTS http://novanewsnet.ukings.ns.ca/stories/03-04/040211/sleep.htm ************* TO THE WRITER ************* Can I just start off by saying you've got a very fun photo here (thanks to a model with a good sense of humour)? And yeah, I'd have to agree that particular textbook would certainly put anyone to sleep, depression or no depression. ;) I gotta say, studies like this drive me crazy, especially when the press picks it up and just runs with it. "Sleep deprivation can lead to depression in teens!" the headlines scream. Well, DUH! And a lack of sleep in older people does pretty much the same thing, while you think about it. It never ceases to amaze me how any study involving teens is just jumped on by media outlets, as if anything attempting to explain the strange habits of these mysterious creatures wearing low-riding jeans and hanging out at malls must be significant. (Memo to parents: IF YOUR KIDS SEEM MOPEY, LET THEM SLEEP!!!) Really good lead sentence here. It sums up what the whole story is about. I'd try to find a way to take the "moreover" out of it, though, if only to keep the flow natural. Possible alternative: "A new study linking sleep deprivation in teens with higher rates of depression is not news at all, say a researcher in sleep disorder and a high school guidance counsellor, who also raise questions about the study's research methods." Aside from that, not really much I can recommend here. I would argue that the sidebar involving Dr. Morehouse's points should be incorporated into the story as examples of pressures that may lead to teen depression in today's teens; sidebars tend to be related to the main story, but not contain info central to the story's theme. -> Have there been other studies suggesting a rise in teen depression? The whole premise of the study in this story is that lack of sleep is leading to higher rates of teen depression, and so it might be useful to find other studies that also suggest a higher rate in the first place. -> The angle you're taking here, talking to a sleep expert and guidance counselor about reactions to the story, is fine enough, but another angle, possibly a follow-up story, is to find out more about this Cole Harbour idea. Is the Halifax school board thinking of experimenting with later start times? If so, is it being influenced by studies on teen sleep patterns? Are there other school boards in Canada or the U.S. that they could point to as examples? What kind of support would that move have among parents? (I know I would sure like to see kids start later, but parents who drive to work might have problems getting to work on time if their kids start school later). Like I said, these are questions that are probably more suitable for a follow-up story, assuming you want to keep this story's focus on local reaction to the Boston study. Nice job! ************* TO THE EDITOR ************* Intro - -> "But a Halifax sleep expert and a guidance counsellor are asking, Is this new?" starts off as a sentence, ends as a question. Kind of weird. Better: "But a Halifax sleep expert and a guidance counsellor are wondering if any of this is new, arguing teens are supposed to be moody." Story - -> P.1: "high school guidance counsellor." has CP changed the rule about counselor? My old copy of Caps and Spelling says it's spelled with one L. (Plus, you spell it with L later on in the story) -> P.2: "The University of Massachusetts Boston study," U of M probably has many campuses, but we don't care... take out the "Boston" here, since the school's name says all we need about the location of the study. (plus, you mention the "Boston" professor just a few graphs later) -> P.2: "published in the journal Child Development [and] widely recounted in the North American media this week" I'd put an "and" here to help the sentence flow -> P.3: "What some Halifax experts are asking now is, 'So what?'" no need for single quotes here. -> P.6: "staying up emailing friends," write "e-mailing" -> P.6: "more extra-curricular activities" no hyphen here; write as one word "No control?" -> P.5: "It's is a pretty well-known fact" it's is? "Time's on no one's side" -> P.2: "should be after 9:00 a.m." CP prefers "9 a.m." -> P.5: "O'Malley recalls that changing school hours was debated at the Cole Harbour school district," I'm confused... I thought all of HRM, including Cole Harbour, was served by the Halifax Regional School Board. Clarify? Also, does he know when this change was debated? "Don't read too much into it" -> P.5: "to a study more than what was actually studies," studied?

Extractions: Helping Depressed Teens I ts not unusual for young people to experience "the blues" or feel "down in the dumps" occasionally. Adolescence is always an unsettling time, with the many physical, emotional, psychological and social changes that accompany this stage of life. Unrealistic academic, social, or family expectations can create a strong sense of rejection and can lead to deep disappointment. When things go wrong at school or at home, teens often overreact. Many young people feel that life is not fair or that things "never go their way." They feel "stressed out" and confused. To make matters worse, teens are bombarded by conflicting messages from parents, friends and society. Todays teens see more of what life has to offer both good and bad on television, at school, in magazines and on the Internet. They are also forced to learn about the threat of AIDS, even if they are not sexually active or using drugs. Teens need adult guidance more than ever to understand all the emotional and physical changes they are experiencing. When teens moods disrupt their ability to function on a day-to-day basis, it may indicate a serious emotional or mental disorder that needs attention adolescent depression. Parents or caregivers must take action. Dealing With Adolescent Pressures

http://www.positivepsychology.org/prpsum.htm

Extractions: reivich@psych.upenn.edu Project Summary The goal of this study is to evaluate school-based interventions designed to improve well-being and prevent depressive symptoms in early adolescence. Depressive symptoms and depressive episodes increase dramatically from late childhood through adolescence, particularly during the high school years. Recent research suggests that as many as one in five adolescents will have an episode of depression by the end of high school and that approximately 70% of depressed children and adolescents never receive treatment. Depression is a recurrent disorder for many and the incidence of adult depression is higher for those individuals who suffer from depression as children or adolescents.

Extractions: This year about one million children will experience a family divorce. About 50% of marriages end in divorce, which means that more than one-third of the children will live in a single parent household for part of their childhood. Divorce is distressing for children, but the majority of children adjust to the change in their family in a year or two. About 60% of children have no contact with their fathers after divorce. Many children, however, have regular visits to the parent with whom they do not live, and these visits are extremely important to a positive divorce adjustment. Divorce is increasingly being seen as a difficult experience on the path to growth, rather than a tragedy from which there is no recovery. Adjustment to Divorce
