In a way every community has the adaptability in consenting some kind of

people that do not have an issue in expressing their inclinations without any
stress and limits However some communities completely refuse those
actions of free self-expression because they consider that mental issues is a
disgrace that no one ought to show it or let it out Furthermore whether we
concede it or not whether it agrees or disagrees with own convictions or not
depression nowadays is a worldwide phenomenon that ought not to be
treated with hush and mistreatment In addition one of the significant
actualities about depression in the world these days particularly in the youth
communities is low self-esteem and insecurities that might push one to
attempt suicide or hurt himself, they are not an easy problem to deal with it
As it can affect people life making them do decisions in a horrific way
which menace their association with their relatives or companions even
threaten their future
Self-esteem shows a person's overall opinion about himself, how he feel
about his abilities and limitations. When someone has high self-esteem he
will feel good about himself, but low self-esteem can cause depression and
insecurities. Depression is considered the main causes of many
psychological problems and annual deaths, where about 1 in 12 teenager try
suicide because of depression according to a semi-annual survey on
teenagers risk behavior. There are many reason which make teenagers
suffering from low depression. Firstly, sudden loss or death. Death of one of
the relatives or friend can make one feel hopeless and depressed, especially
in teenagers life, as in this age they have a mentor to follow their footsteps
or seek a role model. Secondly abuse and oppression, a lot of researches and
documents on children show that sexual abuse can destroy children's life, as
it cause isolation, worry, low self-esteem and depression, and when they
grow up the teenager can yet get abused physically or verbally from close
friends or even adults which make the teenager feel insecure and that they
are not good enough (Beitchman1992). Lastly Social media has a great
effect in self-esteem, as the social media became part of our daily ritualism,
it became a primary gateway to connect with friends, and the world around
us. It starts as a harmless habit for some but it can fast track into a damaging
thing which negatively impacts self-esteem and the way people perceive
others. There are many studies show that about 2/3 of people suffering from
Difficulty sleeping and relaxing after spending a lot of time on social media.

Social media can give us a false sense of belonging and connecting that is
not built on real-life exchanges. This makes it increasingly easy to lose
oneself to cyberspace connections and give them more weight than they
deserve. '' (Sherrie Campbell).

There are many causes of depression as mentioned. But what are the effects
of depression? Depression affects people in many ways whether in a direct
or indirect way. People who suffers from depression tend to avoid
themselves from people or social events to avert any misunderstandings that
could happen. In Egypt there are about 1.2 million Egyptians whom suffer
from depression according to World Health Organization (WHO). Also
according to another made, females are higher than males in the rate of
depression with ratio 2:1 (Gharib Abdel Fattah). Some tend to run to
escapism and addiction by abusing alcohols and drugs to escape from their
painful reality. People who suffering from depression and addiction are at
risk of suicide more than others according to University of Pittsburgh
Medical Centre. In Egypt about fifteen percent of people under depression
are addicted and have suicidal behaviors, and forty percent already tried to
suicide before according to Dr Mohammed Abdi el Fatah in his interview
about the relation between depression and addiction. All of this effects of
depression demonstrates that it is not an easy problem to deal with it. The
rate will increase more if we do not do something about it
There are many solutions to transact with depression.
In Egypt and many countries in the Middle East people tend to transact with
mental problems superstitious also accuse who suffering from Psychological
problems that they are far from the GOD, making them going to sheikhs
who make them imagine that jinn controlled them which make the issue
aggravate. Disadvantages of this solution is that we need to realize that
depression needs to medicinal consideration not through myths.

Another solution for people that endure the effects of depression because of
insecurities is antidepressants, people look for this medicine keeping in their

mind that the medicine will promote their mood and make them upbeat and
do not have any issues. at first this medicine demonstrate a decent result,
however it can causes addiction and many disadvantages after using it for
long term dealing with these prescriptions as it did not solve the problem but
gave them a deceptive feeling about their condition likewise they are not
available for everybody and they are excluded in the medical coverage in
Egypt and numerous countries.
Another solution is to use modern mental methods, for example, counselling
a therapist and group therapy those are the nowadays ways in treating many
psychological illness these days, looking for a specialist can urge them to
open up and attempt to fathom their problems and discuss it with their
doctor or with their group therapy, especially after seeing that everybody in
the group suffering from their issues like them and struggles or much more
terrible Which make them trying to thinking in their problem and trying to
find solution for it. in spite of the fact that group treatment extremely viable
it can likewise be exceptionally costly, regards to some people income in
some countries in the middle east need to deal first with some of close
minded people that still takes who go to alienist to be crazy, not simply
ordinary people that experience an issue that influencing their life

There are numerous solution to overcome depression as said however the

best solution for defeat this problem is to concede that there is an issue. Why
admitting? The main rule to overcome any issue is to concede that there is
an issue first then try to solving it. Additionally enlisting in social activities
and practicing physical exercises, for example, playing football and
philanthropic associations to enhance self-confidence and what are the
advantages of conceding that there is an issue?
Initially confronting reality: They won't live denying the problem any longer
and they will never be compelled to coexist with their issue making it their
way of life in light of the fact that they are bashful or reluctant to concede
that they need assistance

Second Encouragement: people who suffering from insecure will have the
strength to talk themselves and their problems whether it is with relatives or

with dear companions likewise it will make them get out from their
customary range of familiarity and trying to doing things they did not try to
do it before.

Third turning out to be more positive: when people concede that they are
facing an issue, they will attempt to change any negative thing they are
doing regardless of the fact that it is their companions or an old stand
realizing that they are just doing this for themselves not to any other one
they need to satisfy.
Again after conceding the issue and turn out to be more positive ,then trying
to practicing any sports and dealing with people they will feel by immense
difference from their previous life.
Better lifestyle: there are many Depression issues originate when person
being not certainty in his body shape or his looks. When teenager begin
practicing any sport, they see an enormous distinction in their body and their
health, which make them believe in themselves. according to report
(Adolescence) published in 2006, show that the effect of sport in enhancing
both emotional and behavioral well-being in teenager, which increase their
self-esteem and confidence and make their overall performance is better,

Feeling belonged: anybody doing for philanthropy and feel that they truly
have a part in his community and how can make distinction by offering poor
some assistance. He will be satisfied about himself and will turn out to be
certain and more about the way he sees himself in.

in the end depression as a result of insecurities and low self-esteem can

prompt critical issues such as; suicide and addiction, additionally, it can

undermine people's way of life making them miss a great deal of chances in
light of the fact that they imagine that they are sufficiently bad or that they
will not merit in life. Moreover, our community have to be more
understanding to psychological diseases and quit concealing our heads in the
land such as ostriches, in light of the fact that the more the issue is
disregarded the more it will continue developing and spreading on our
community. Also the most ideal approach that have an effect on these issue
is to spread mindfulness and awareness in schools and colleges and urge
teenagers with issues to look for help from specialists without feeling
embarrassed or ashamed likewise making modern psychological techniques
