Teen Voices: Quinten’s Battle with Depression and Finding Hope

I think that's where we as a society go in the wrong direction. Grades, I don't think, have crap to do with anything. I think that's where a lot of people miss out, because anyone that I've ever talked to I've never had them say that my challenges started when I was, or when I was.
Quinten opens up about his journey through the dark corridors of teen depression in this heartfelt episode of Dr1ven Industries. Host Eric Zink sits down with Quinten to discuss the often-hidden struggles young people face, shedding light on the realities of teen mental illness and suicide.

Eric and Quinten explore practical coping strategies and the critical need for schools to provide better mental health resources.
