And one in six people (16.6%) will experience depression at some time in their life.
School is one of the example places where expression can be acquired from especially when projects are given to students so we decided to interview teaches and students. As we interviewed two teachers, we asked them to define depression, they defined it as a too much sadness or agony.
Parallel to that asked three students if they already experienced depression. Two of them said yes and the other says otherwise.
We asked their opinions on how to handle and prevent depression. They answered by involving in church, always open up your problems to the person you trust and make yourself busy.
