I don't understand. I have friends that say they are depressed. They have no reason to. Maybe if they were starving to death and lived in Africa, maybe they might have a reason, but they live a normal American suburban life. It's ridiculous. Does anyone agree with me, or no?

It's ironic how fortunate North American teens who are handed everything they need to flourish in life become depressed over small(er) issues, compared to your example of starving kids in Africa. But it makes sense.
We're so used to having our way for everything, and we've never been through any real hardship. The smallest things can make us depressed. A complicated lifestyle gives you complicated problems. And although those kids in Africa have much more pressing issues, they haven't been babied into it and are still make the best of life in spite of it. Am I making too many generalisations? Sorry. |
