In our previous video, we talked about the signs of anxiety caused by your childhood, but what about childhood depression? Did you know that, as of 2018, depression is now among the most commonly diagnosed mental disorders in children? In spite of these steadily rising incidence rates, so many people are still ignorant and unaware of the fact that children, too, can struggle with mental illness. Because of this, many more cases left undiagnosed and untreated. And what's worse is that people who become depressed at a young age tend to have more severe symptoms and become less receptive to treatment because of how long they’ve gone without any help.
