Learn how the brain works, and how to recognize the symptoms of depression.
Depression usually does not begin to affect you until puberty. Sometimes, a younger will show signs of depression, but that is unusual. You can be born with a genetic tendency to have depression, but babies and small children are almost always satisfied so long as they are well treated. Having the tendency does not mean that you will become depressed, just that you have a bigger chance of it.
