Here are some tips to help your Teenage to fight Depression.

What Parents Can Do Accept the fact that depressed youths may have difficulty expressing their feelings, or they may not understand what is happening to them.

They may not even know the symptoms of depression. It is possible that the symptoms of depression seen in adolescents are different from those of adults.

So be alert to major changes in your child's behavior, eating habits, mood, sleep, or social interactions — especially if they have been going on for weeks. Do not dismiss it when he says something about suicide or if there is a hint of suicide. If you suspect that your child has depression (not just seizures), consider whether it is advisable to see a psychiatrist.

Help your child follow the treatment, and return to the doctor if you find that his or her condition is not improving or if the medication has side effects. As a family, have a good routine of eating, exercising, and sleeping. Talk to your child regularly, and help him or her deal with any signs that may lead to depression. Always let your child know that you love him or her because when he or she is depressed, he or she feels lonely, shy, or worthless.
