As a Teen, What Can I Do About Teenage Depression?

Question by wtws?: As a teen, what can I do about teenage depression?
I understand that this is a serious issue. I can be there for a person in need of help, and I can also set up presentations with speeches about ways that people can help, but is there something else that I can do? How can our society change so that the general rate of teen depression goes down? And is simply raising awareness enough to deal with an issue like this? People may be aware of depression, but how can they be motivated to DO something about it?

to tell you the truth what you need to do is just live your life because no matter what you do or how you feel life still goes on feeling depressed sucks trust me i no but there is not really nothing you can do about it but except whatever is depressing you and move on take it for what it is and soon you will learn that its just life thats bothering you……………….. when you get older your gonna see what i mean.
