(Note: I've decided to reupload this under a new account for those who wish to download it - it's kind of unfair that each media file gets 100 downloads, but that's the way it is, I guess. I'll do it again if I have to, as I see Mr Ben Whishaw is getting quite popular.)

La discrète

La discrète (Stéphane Delicq)

Depression in children is characterised by sad or irritable mood, anhedonia, decreased capacity to have fun, decreased self-esteem, sleep disturbance, social withdrawal or impaired social relationships, and impaired school performance.

It is one of the most common paediatric psychiatric disorders, especially among girls during adolescence.

David A. Brent, Endowed Chair in Suicide Studies, Professor of Psychiatry, Pediatrics, Epidemiology, and Clinical and Translational Science, University of Pittsburgh, gives us an overview of the condition.
