INTRODUCTION
Depression is the common cold of mental disorders ,most people
will be affected by depression in their lives either directly or indirectly,
through a friend or family member. Confusion about depression is
commonplace with regard to what depression exactly is and what makes it
different from just feeling down.
There is also confusion surrounding the many types of depression

that people experience ,unipolar depression, biological depression, manic
depression, seasonal affective disorder, dysthymia, etc. There have been so
many terms used to describe this set of feelings we’ve all felt at one time or
another in our lives, it may be difficult to understand the difference between
just being blue and having clinical depression.

INTRODUCTION
It is reported by the Global Burden of Disease Study in 2015, that 3.3
million Filipinos suffer from depressive disorders and around 3 million with
anxiety, with 2.5 males and 1.7 females per 100,000 committing suicide in the
Philippines, according to the National Centre for Mental Health.
Grief after the death or loss of a loved one is common and not
considered depression in the usual sense. Teenagers going through the usual
mood swings common to that age usually don’t experience clinical depression
either. Depression usually strikes adults, and twice as many women as men. It
is theorized that men express their depressive feelings in more external ways
that often don’t get diagnosed as depression.
RESEARCH QUESTIONS
This study aims to explore the difficulties
experienced by the Teenage Survivor of Depression.
1. What are the challenges of a depressed person?
2.How depressed person cope day to day living?
3. What are the values of life discovered being

depressed?
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Depression is a mood disorder which prevents individuals
from leading a normal life, at work socially or within their family.
Seligman (1973) referred to depression as the ‘common cold’ of
psychiatry because of its frequency of diagnosis.
Psychosocial factors, especially stressful life circumstances

and stress mediating factors, are a major concern in current
research on the etiology and treatment of depression. This paper
presents a conceptual framework to summarize and integrate the
rapidly expanding theoretical, empirical, and clinical literature on
depression.
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
According to the fall 2007 American College Health Association-

National College Health Assessment, a national survey of approximately
20,500 college students on 39 campuses, 43.2% of the students reported
"feeling so depressed it was difficult to function" at least once in the past 12
months.
More than 3,200 university students reported being diagnosed as
having depression, with 39.2% of those students diagnosed in the past 12
months, 24.2% currently in therapy for depression, and 35.8% taking
antidepressant medication. Among the students surveyed, 10.3% admitted
"seriously considering attempting suicide" within the past 12 months and
1.9% actually attempted suicide during that period.
RELATED LITERATURE
In 2007 Kelly and colleagues conducted a none experimental
study that recruited from introductory psychology classes
university students with depression who were not currently in
treatment, offering both financial compensation and class credit
for research involvement.
Sixty college students (66% Caucasian, 57% female) with
major depression were followed for nine weeks without any
treatment to assess for sudden gains (that is, precipitous
improvements in depressive symptomatology), remission of
depressive symptoms, and reversal of improvements.
RELATED LITERATURE
In 2000 Lara and colleagues conducted a none experimental
study in which undergraduate students taking psychology classes who
had a recent-onset major depressive episode were paid or received
course credit for their research participation.
Eighty-four students (51% Caucasian, 86% female) were followed

for 26 weeks to assess whether various psychosocial factors predicted
the short-term course of major depression. The authors found that
within the 26-week period of no treatment, 68% of the college students
who were initially depressed recovered.
