Depression in adolescents is a particular example of an emotional and behavioral disorder, and also typical for the puberty period. It is associated with changes in the endocrine system that normally happen during that age. Those changes are due to the development of new cognitive functions and taking new roles in society. During that period, a child achieves an emotional autonomy and formal independence from their family. Scientific research proves that the mother’s depression and her anxiety during pregnancy can be inherited and can cause anxiety and depressive disorders in the newborns. The scientists also conducted studies of the nervous tissue in deceased people who had suffered from depression before death. An increasing level of stress associated with school, education, competition among the students, and the expectations bar set too high by teachers and parents is being observed. It is include family problems, traumatic experiences, all kinds of stress, addiction, being overwhelmed with daily duties, insomnia, etc. The scientists from Canada, using some previous research show that alcohol consumption, even in small quantities, may increase the risk of occurrence the severe depression and suicidal tendencies. Behavioral changes, mood swings, anxiety, physical activity and appetite disorders, stress, drug or alcohol addiction decreased organism’s immunity – all of this is inseparably linked with depression.[1] We already know about older advances such as the use of electric shock, modified leucotomy, sleep, and modified insulin treatments in depressive states, but much less is known as yet about the proper use of what may well become another major advance in the treatment of the depressions-namely, the recent discovery of a whole new range of antidepressant drugs. Anxiety and depressive disorders are often accompanied by a tendency to passivity and withdrawal. It is therefore not surprising that these patient groups often have reduced physical fitness compared with the general population. The first publication in a scientific journal of exercise as treatment for clinical depression was published over a century ago. Franz & Hamilton reported favourable outcomes following exercise in emotional, cognitive and bodily symptoms in two severely depressed patient.[2] Self-reports of antidepressant withdrawal symptoms were found on http://survivingantidepressants. org. The information for this study was found in the ‘Introduction’ area of the website, an online chat room where individual users introduce themselves to the online community. Users’ descriptions of neurological and psychological symptoms indicate experiences that are hard to classify using standard medical technology. Some, such as ‘brain zaps’ and electric shock-like sensations, have been noted before, but some are less familiar, such as ‘brain sloshing,’ ‘vision lagging behind eye movements’ and ‘head like cotton balls stuffed in’. Different classes of CNS drugs may share common withdrawal symptoms, but may also have their own specific withdrawal symptoms. Some initial new withdrawal symptoms common to all CNS drug classes include nausea, headaches, tremor, sleep disturbances, decreased concentration, anxiety, irritability, agitation, aggression, depression, or dysphoria. Other new withdrawal symptoms that may be more specific to a certain class of CNS drugs include lacrimation, rhinorrhea, and sneezing for opiates, paroxysmal sweats for alcohol, and increased appetite for nicotine New withdrawal symptoms reported with SSRIs include a wide range of symptoms, both physical and psychological. New withdrawal symptoms described in the literature include flu-like symptoms, headaches, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, decreased concentration, sleep disturbances, dysphoria, irritability, and restlessness. [3] A recurrent disabling withdrawal symptom described in the literature and online by patients is a sensory symptom of electric shock sensations and electric like waves. These specific serotonin-related symptoms include diarrhea, flu-like symptoms, dizziness, myoclonus, electric shock sensations, and premature ejaculation. , major complications of withdrawal may occur, such as seizures, suicide and psychoses , and, in cases of barbiturate or alcohol abuse and death.
