INTRODUCTION: Good Afternoon, Teacher Ronald, good

afternoon, everyone, this is the output of Group 1. The topic we
chose for the theme of our poster is DEPRESSION.

Depression:
 Depression (major depressive disorder) is a common and
serious medical illness that negatively affects how you feel,
the way you think and how you act. Fortunately, it is also
treatable. Depression causes feelings of sadness and/or a loss
of interest in activities you once enjoyed. It can lead to a
variety of emotional and physical problems and can decrease
your ability to function at work and at home.

Causes of Depression:
 Family Problem
High initial levels and growth in family conflict predicted
adult stressful life events, which, in turn, predicted adult
depressive symptoms, controlling for earlier risks of poverty
and internalizing problems.
 Break-ups
Breakups can take a serious toll on your well-being. Not only
can the end of a relationship lead to major life changes in
finances and living situations, but breakups also create a
great deal of emotional turmoil. In other cases, you might
feel angry, sad, bitter, anxious, and heartbroken.
  School
While school offers many benefits to adolescents, such as
connecting with peers, overscheduling and academic
pressure can be a significant source of stress, contributing to
mental health issues including teen depression.
 Socializing
Socializing with others and having a friendly support system
not only has a huge impact on defeating psychological
problems such as anxiety and depression, but it also plays a
key factor in reducing stress as well.

Tips on how to prevent Depression:

1. Pray and ask for the guidance of our lord.
2. Consult personal problems to your parents.
3. Take good care of yourself. Get enough sleep, eat well, and
exercise regularly.
4. Have someone to talk to or share with.

Any kind of depression can lead to insanity and the worst is

death.

Again, I am the leader of Group 1, Jade Samuel R. Cayetano,

and that’s the end of my report.
