Teens test-drive a variety of emotions every day, and sometimes they have no idea how to explain or express them. We’ve all heard (or even said) something like, “I’m so depressed! They canceled my favorite show!” or “I’m so anxious about my math test!” The language of mental illness runs rampant through our casual conversations. It’s not all that surprising, though. These days it’s like everyone on earth has a microphone, and with the racket of everyone’s opinions, hyperbole seems a useful method for getting heard. The louder the noise, the less others want to listen, so we sometimes use exaggerations to describe how we feel and to connect with others.
But things like depression and anxiety are no exaggerations. Rick Warren, pastor of one of the largest evangelical churches in the US and author of one of the top bestsellers in history (The Purpose Driven Life), lost his son Matthew to suicide after a long battle with a serious depression disorder. Author, pastor, and Southern Baptist Convention president Frank Page wrote a well-read book about his daughter’s severe depression and eventual suicide. A quarter of pastors (yes, pastors) admit to having suffered from mental illness themselves—most often depression or anxiety, and many of them since childhood.[1] Even Winston Churchill suffered terribly from a lifelong untreated mood disorder he called a “black dog” that would sit on his lap and haunt him.
