I need help on a psychology paper on depression. I don't know what to write.

Research has found that the greatest risk of developing a major depression occurs between the ages of 15-24 and 35-44. Your age group is certainly within the risk group. Write an essay of 150-200 words explaining why depression is so prevalent in your age group and what can be done to help a friend that might be experiencing a depression. What coping mechanisms are there for your age group?

As a starting point, you can write your essay on cyberbullying in the age group of 15-24. You could also write about the stress of school and getting into college, for some people this could be a very depressing time. Getting your friend's mind off of the situation is a great way to cope.
