    Mental illness like depression is often stigmatized in Asian countries, causing people to feel ashamed and unwilling to admit they have a condition. For teenagers, the pressures of school, high expectations from parents, family problems, and bullying can all potentially lead to depression or other mental health issues. To help, we should talk supportively with teens, speak positively to them, and not belittle them. If those efforts don't work, we should encourage teens to seek help from mental health professionals. Addressing mental health is important for teens, their families, and society.
