Lesson Overview

13.26 – Depression in Different Age Groups: Depression looks different at every stage of life. In children, it may appear as irritability, tantrums, or clinginess rather than sadness. Teens might withdraw, lose interest in activities, or express hopeless thoughts. Adults may show fatigue, anger, or work difficulties instead of visible tears. Older adults might feel physical pain, confusion, or guilt about being “a burden.” Each age group faces unique challenges that shape how symptoms appear. Understanding these differences helps families, teachers, and doctors notice warning signs earlier. Age-specific support—like play therapy for kids or social groups for seniors—makes treatment more effective. Depression can touch anyone, but no one has to face it alone. Across every age, compassion and open dialogue make healing possible. Recognizing these patterns helps prevent misdiagnosis and ensures that everyone, from child to elder, receives care that fits their life stage and needs.
