-Unfortunately teen depression is often seen as a normal teenage “phase” of life and consequently, it’s not diagnosed or treated.
-This unit uses a “Depression Survey,” PowerPoint slides, and activities to help your students understand and possibly recognize the symptoms of stress and depression.
-Students will learn that Clinical Depression is treatable and that help is available!!
-Through discussions, reflective surveys, hands-on activities, and INTERACTIVE GOOGLE SLIDES, this engaging unit helps students combine their values and motivations, recognize the causes of depression, understand how to get help, treatment, and healing for depression, know the causes of suicide and how to help someone considering it; and finally, see 5 ways THEY CAN EMPOWER THEMSELVES to overcome stress, to do something good for others, and become more confident and motivated for their own future.
-The unit stresses that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem and it leaves devastation for loved ones in its wake, and what to do if a friend is talking about suicide, and more.
