Abstract

Though hardly get attention from the public, depressive disorder in adolescents has become a serious problem in many countries. The general symptoms of this kind of disorder may be depressed mood, poor academic performance, etc. It is especially severe when children cannot get treatment in the time since some parents might ignore the hint from their kids and neglect the severity of this disease. Given the hardship adolescents with depressive disorder encountered, the review included the etiology, impact, and applicable treatment to this specific disease in the hope of providing a holistic view of current studies related to adolescents’ depressive disorder and helped more young patients. This review, based on several studies, provides a more specific look at the etiology aspect. The results showed that the cause of depressive disorder in adolescents should be attributed to the mixed effect of gene pool and environments. The impact of depressive disorder in adolescents should not be limited only to personal performance and depressed mood. This disease can also trigger some physical problems such as headaches and so on. To restrain and cure depression, potential treatments are listed in this article. The future direction may target differences in gender and cultural backgrounds.
