Question

Teenage girl depression?

Answer

Physical maturation resulting from puberty leads to an interest in sexual activities, sometimes leading to teenage pregnancy. As many adolescents are not mentally or emotionally prepared to handle the feelings and emotions that come along with sex, nor financially able to support children, it is problematic when teens engage in such behaviors. At this age there is also a greater probability of drug and alcohol use, or mental health disorders such as schizophrenia, eating disorders such as anorexia, and depression. The unstable emotions or lack of emotional intelligence among some adolescents may also lead to youth crime.
