Depression is suspected when the adolescent uses words such as down, sad, low, blue, hopeless, worried, bored, or discouraged and exhibits several of the following symptoms:
•Change in weight or appetite
•Insomnia or hypersomnia
•Decreased energy or fatigue
•Loss of interest and pleasure in usual activities
•Out-of-proportion feelings of self-reproach or guilt
•Difficulty concentrating; declining school performance
•Preoccupation with death or suicidal ideation (Edelman, Kudzma, & Mandle, 2014, pg. 525)
