Girls' Anti-Social Behavior Predictive of Later Depression

Girls' Anti-Social Behavior Predictive of Later Depression
from mentalhelp.net

Comment from the contributor:

From Mentalhelp.net -- A study shows that girls with anti social behavior, can be the beginning of more serious mental health problems. Some kids identify early on, feelings of depression and anxiety.

“ However, showing signs of depression in first or second grade did not mean adolescent depression was imminent, said the report published in The Journal of Early Adolescence. ”
