The most depressed person in the family

[Youngrebel]

Is there even a unit of measurement for who is most depressed in a famili?
Everyone in the family has different roles to play. This roles all carry their special functions to are not to get considered as a less important or less effective.  When the efforts of every one is appreciated without any pressure then everyone will be happy while carring out their daily rask without  any pressure. People like to be cared for and appreciated.

I know that most people is likely to call the most elderly person in the family which is the son or daughter depending how the case maybe and which I'm not arguing the fact the depression goes to the first son because he is the most elderly person in the family and apart from the parents which is the depression themselves when there is know money to take care of the kids but i believe that as life goes on within themselves in the family, the most depressed person in the family is the one that what the betterment of the family and yet the rest of brothers and sisters are not encouraging at all, and feeling i don't care life, so the depressed person might come from any members of family, which is from the father to the last person in the family.

No measurement but the eldest is always the carrier of the burden and shouldn't fail to help their siblings. While this isn't a measure but it is becoming a standard that there is no room for failure from these eldest born kids. But a family that understands their roles and each of them is working to help each other, this is a good sign that they know that each of their help is much needed and shouldn't just allow the burden to get carried by only one.

Depression happens day and night. In a family facing what so ever
Who do you think is the most depressed person in the family?
Could it be the eldest son?
What is the fact behind your reasons?

Everyone can be depressed in the family, it's normal there's no specific person. In a family where there's love and unity you can hardly see anyone being depressed because they share things in common and support each other.

In a family where there's competition and hatred, the one that's at his lowest get depressed most times, and when it's heated ,he can grow jealousy which can be destructive in the family. Family should share love and unity, don't let anyone discourage the love in the family. Brother she watch out for each one, there's no gain seeing your brother in pain or depressed.

Whoever is carting the greater responsibility of the family is usually the most depressed but oftentimes, he rarely shows it and or let it out because he believes he has to be seen as a strong person.

Most fathers and first son faces the highest level of depression because they feel they are responsible for what's happening in the family. If things is not working, they are the ones that comes in to ensure things starts working  and most times, they spend all Thier times sorting the needs of others while almost completely neglecting theres. It's part of what adulthood and responsibility comes with. Depression is real and a lot of people are currently depressed, the easiest way one can deal with it is to know that there are two types of things. The ones you can control and the ones that are above your power. A simple understanding that not everything is for you handle saves you from unnecessary pressures that can get you depressed.

Depression can happen to anyone it doesn't matter your position in the family anyone can get depressed, eldest child if the family may face many responsibilities that make them think too much and sliding into depression in the end, but still not only the eldest son but even any member can feel the same as far as responsibility is at the center of the heart.

Actually, I would say anybody can be the most depressed in a family regardless of if it’s the first or last child depending on their thoughts or what they are passing through as at that time. But when it comes to family issues or maybe the family might be going through some hard times then, I will say the most depressed person as at then will be the first child. Reasons been that he/she has a lot of responsibility as the first child to provide for the family since the parents are incapable of doing so as at that time and everyone will be looking up to him /her thereby the child in question will feel very pressured especially when it’s a time they can’t really help which lead to depression.

Real talk  it can be the eldest son a lot of times. He usually carries the most pressure expectations, responsibilities, being “strong,” providing, fixing stuff and still not allowed to complain.

That silent weight builds up and nobody checks on him because they think he is fine.

Doesn’t mean he’s always the most depressed but his often the most overlooked

The first child be it a boy or a girl, when you are the first child you have a lot of pressure especially when the family is very poor but when the family is not poor you won’t have any pressure, when the family is very poor the first child will have the pressure of trying to provide for the family in most cases the first child will do a lot of things to make sure the family comes out from poverty and this lead them to depression and they usually find it very hard to come out of it, most of them will start doing drugs, I’m a the first child of my family and even though we are rich I understand how those family with first child that are poor behave because I have friends.
Parent should do their best so they will not put pressure on their children.

In a family, the one who always takes on more responsibilities is more depressed, especially in my family, after my father, my elder brother is more depressed. My father used to earn money for us as long as he was able to work. But when my father lost his ability to work, my elder brother's responsibilities fell on his shoulders. Now it is very difficult to manage the family with the amount of work he does and the salary he gets, that is why my elder brother is seen to be very depressed lately.

When the head of the family is healthy and working it's an opportunity for others who are growing to support him I nthe family so that the load will not only be on his shoulders to avoid depression, in this case your father tried his best but I think the load of the family was too heavy on him and now that he's no longer very active it's not bad if you can support your elder brother to support the family and reduce the load from off his shoulders so that he will not be so depressed to the point or aging faster than his age.

So many things can trigger depression, it could responsibility, lack of funds, and I think I’m family fathers are more depressed because the whole family responsibility is on him but aside that I think the elders or the most successful, be it first daughter or first son , the feeling of being a provider without much support from people can be very exhausting.

In a family anybody can face depression depending on what has been eating the individual. But I believe in most cases the younger children sometimes face depression the most, this is because most teenage children tends to keep things to themselves, probably he/she is been bullied in school yet they wouldn't tell anyone at home, they try to keep it to themselves as they can be too shy to talk about it or just not too comfortable in spitting it out to any one at home and it indirectly affect their mental health thereby demoralizing them.

Depression is real somehow no can avoid completely when it comes to taking calculated risks to win over the challenge you are faced with or not do anything at all. Even the child can enter depression as a result of bullying of him by other school by school mates and most parents do not know due to their lack of observation, identification and correction of issues bedeviling the wards thereby bringing a lasting solution to it.
