Question:
What are some serious signs of teenage depression?

Answer:
A change in appetite and sleep patterns, loss of interest or enjoyment in usual activities, prolonged sadness, withdrawal from friends, feelings of worthlessness, lack of energy, and poor school performance are all signs that should alert you to a problem that may need professional counseling (especially if they persist and don't respond to encouragement). See depression.
