Depression - Teen Support Group

Teen depression is marked by persistent sadness, discouragement, loss of self-worth, and loss of interest in usual activities. Depression can be a temporary response to many situations and stresses. Teens may be more susceptible to depression due to the normal maturation process, the stress associated with it, and conflicts with parents as they become more independent.

Sure can punky, depression can cause headaches because your body usually gets tense, try doing deep breathing excercises or belly breathing hon, after the first few deep breathes you should start to feel more relaxed,if thats not working take a tylenol , but give each time to work :-) ))))

i took some excedrin..its not helping very much =/
The pain is really sensative to light and sound..the deep breathing..it seems to relieve tension..but it still hurts like hell >.
