Teenage depression is caused from society.
When those supposed "sages" we are supposed to listen to bar you improperly, when they restrict you from growth. When they cause your mind to see things in a way to would make even the darkest of times darker.
Is this why we turn into self-destructive capsules? Is this why we force ourselves to do things we'd rather not be, only to reach a higher state of artifical happiness? Shouldn't we be able to enjoy life without anything but other people? Forget all your belongings and events that you do with your friends; what makes them so great?
If you go to disneyland with no one you know, it would suck. Go with your best of friends, and you can't help but realize you're making memories.
Why the hell is it that our parents don't recognize this fact? They were once teenagers, is it possible to forget the same feeling? People who restrict other people with force, only restict that persons ability to thrive. Regardless, there is nothing that will do better when caged at first compared to those who were never caged at all.
Life is experience, what is life if you have none?
