why i feel so sad

why i feel so sad Why do some adolescents feel sad?
Adolescents may become sad for many reasons:
• because their family lives are unhappy, for example because of violence,
abuse and constant fights in the family;
• because they are frustrated with their school performance – failing in examinations or not doing as well as was expected;
• because they cannot be with someone they love – love affairs that are broken either by the parents or by the loved person;
• because they are suffering from physical pain or illness;
• because of abuse and violence;
• because they are suffering from severe depression or a psychotic illness;
• because they are abusing alcohol or drugs.
