With childhood depression most depression is situational not chemical,therefore the situational cause of the depression has to be dealt with by therapists who can work out why they are depressed and work through those issues with them.Also diagnosing a child before puberty is a false and harmful prescribed diagnosis,so that kids don't develop critical thinking skills.Taught to learn mere facts and figures but not how to apply that knowledge to situations outside of what they are being prepared for.All denied a natural healing and enjoyable life as a happy family as they once were.The Meds create drug dependence,suicidal impulses,heart problems,weight gain and diabetes.Prozac, Xanax and others have actually been found to inspire suicidal and violent behavior.Need problems solved not drugs.
