“…There have been comparatively few studies of adolescent depression despite its impact on morbidity and mortality. Most studies focus on adults (Lutz & Warren 2007) and fail to consider the developmental considerations that differentiate depression occurring in adolescence from its manifestation in adulthood (Farmer 2002). For example, anger and aggression are typical features of adolescent depression, yet these are not included in diagnostic manuals such as diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM‐IV‐TR) (Farmer 2002).…”

People who develop depression experience a maelstrom of emotions as they struggle to understand what is happening to them. While the experience has been comparatively well documented in older adults, much less is known about the depression experience and responses of young people. In this study, we aimed to explore the experience of young people diagnosed with depression. Twenty-six young people were recruited from a youth mental health service. A qualitative interpretative design was used, incorporating semi-structured, audio-recorded interviews. Results provided four overlapping themes, reflecting the young people's difficulties in coming to terms with, and responding in self-protective, harmful and at times life-threatening ways to their depression: (1) struggling to make sense of their situation; (2) spiralling down; (3) withdrawing; and (4) contemplating self-harm or suicide. Study conclusions are that young people faced considerable difficulties coming to terms with, and responding to, depression. Improving young people's understanding of depression and its treatment, reducing community stigma and providing accessible and youth-focused services remain important targets for intervention. It is also important to improve mental health literacy in the community to increase awareness of depression and how mental health professionals, including nurses, respond effectively to the young person.

The Culture of Mental Illness in Adolescents with Urologic Problems C ulture is an internal and external representation of a person's belief and value systems (Warren, 2008a), and it represents the person's essence. Adolescents are a unique cultural group and have several layers of culture that comprise their individual beliefs, values, norms, and health experiences. These layers may include but are not limited to developmental stage, chronological and emotional age, mental and physical health status, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, biologic sex, group and/or community attachments, and environmental settings. Mental wellness is the foundation for overall quality health for an adolescent (Lutz & Warren, 2007; Warren, 2009). Urologic problems may alter adolescent developmental and mental health processes, and possibly destabilize the quality of SERIES Objectives 1. Discuss the connection of mental wellness, illness, and cultural competence in adolescents 13 to 23 years of age experiencing urologic problems. 2. Describe symptoms of the most prevalent mental illnesses (such as depression, anxiety disorder, eating disorder, and schizophrenia) that may emerge during the adolescent years. 3. Provide a list of rating scales that can be used by nurses to screen for possible depressive, anxiety, and disordered thought symptoms.
