<![CDATA[Depression, according to Beck and Alford (2009), is a psychological disorder characterized by deviations in feelings, cognition, and individual behavior. Individuals who experience depressive disorders can feel sad and alone, have decreased self-concept, and show withdrawal behavior from their environment. Not all teenagers succeed in going through the changes that occur during the transition period well; some of them even begin to experience a lot of unpleasant incidents. The uncertainty of adolescents in dealing with various kinds of life conflicts can be one of the factors that causes the potential risk of adolescents experiencing depression to increase. Depression is generally not detected early on and is only discovered after several conflicts occur, including suicide, which is the third leading cause of death in adolescents. The purpose of this study was to find out the attitudes that are signs of depression that occur in adolescents and the problems that accompany them. Some of the attitudes that were the most common signs of depression experienced by research subjects included difficulty concentrating, loss of interest in activities, relatively drastic changes in body weight, and insomnia all night. Meanwhile, the problems experienced by both research subjects, who still have the potential to experience depression, are mostly related to dissatisfaction with appearance, poor academic achievement, receiving unpleasant treatment from other people, both friends and parents, as well as problematic relationships between parents.]]>
