Mental health conditions

Mental illness refers to a wide range of mental health conditions — disorders that affect your mood, thinking and behavior. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders, and addictive behaviors. Many of these illnesses tend to start as teens enter into puberty when their hormones and moods start to change. As a result, it can be difficult for teens and their parents to recognize the difference between normal teenage mood swings and mental health conditions.

Your assignment is to create a Power Point Presentation about the disorder that you choose. The goal of your Power Point is to make your peers more aware of the signs of the illness as well as to let them know where they can go for help.
