Damned if you do

Sadgirl A recent study has found that doing drugs and having sex can lead to teen depression.

In related news, a longitudinal study of one teenager growing up in Queens proved that a lack of sex and drugs also leads to depression. The subject and author of the study is currently seeking a grant to try and find out if the findings can be duplicated in a larger sample.

Since it now seems that having sex and not having sex can lead to depression, maybe the one in five is actually a low estimate of teen psychological disorders.

I always thought I'd have had a better adolescence if I'd had a regular boyfriend from about the age of fourteen. I might have been able to study instead of jerking off five times a day. (Of course, the desire to study was probably the numero uno factor in my NOT having a boyfriend. Who the hell wants to go out with Lisa Simpson?)

Being a teen can lead to depression. Paying attention to what's going on in the world can lead to depression.
