great article/Religion and Depression in teens

http://behavioural-psychology.suite101.com/topiclist/article.cfm/how_religion_increases_depression_in_teens




This was an interesting article for me because as a latina I feel religion is a constant battle of who I want to be and what I'm aloud to be within those boundaries. I was raised Catholic, but now I'm agnnostic, I don't believe in organized religion, but as strongly as I feel about it I still get pulled back in some weird way because it's how I was raised. To think I wanted to be a nun back in my early childhood. It's also interesting how it affects Latina women and Asian women more than African American or White women or men.
