Introduces the topic of depression, especially as it relates to teens and young adults. The information, guidance, and resources offered are valuable tools for anyone personally grappling with depression or who has a friend or family member who is.
How is depression different from sadness, and why are some individuals more predisposed to depression than others? What happens in the brain when we're depressed? What medications and options for therapy are available, and what side effects can antidepressants have? How can you help a friend or loved one experiencing depression?
Depression: Your Questions Answered, a part of Greenwood's Q&A Health Guides series, provides clear, concise answers to these and many other questions young readers may have regarding this difficult and often misunderstood topic. Each book in this series follows a reader-friendly question-and-answer format that anticipates readers' needs and concerns. Prevalent myths and misconceptions are identified and dispelled, and a collection of case studies illustrates key concepts and issues through relatable stories and insightful recommendations. The book also includes a section on health literacy, equipping teens and young adults with practical tools and strategies for finding, evaluating, and using credible sources of health information both on and off the internet—important skills that contribute to a lifetime of healthy decision-making.
Romeo Vitelli received his doctorate in psychology from York University in Toronto, Ontario, in 1987 and has been in private practice since 2003.
