Perhaps in the eyes of most people, "depression" is a mental illness that adults will suffer from, because the pressure of work and life is relatively high. However, some data show that the number of adolescent depression patients is increasing year by year. In fact, depression may occur at any age, and it has gradually become younger in recent years.
