I would be happy to learn it from the very childhood
Everything starts from it. It's the basic of all basics. I have to learn it now instead of be prepared to it and make other life step. In any case all people comes to it.. The later they do it the less they are ready for life and  the less they feel fully happy

A valid point. They should be taught from an early age that there is help and support available.
That they are not the only person to fight internal demons.

yes, I think that would be good. In school, we need to talk more about everything that matters to health, and all the more about depression, because it is the 21st-century disease. More and more people start to have such problems as a result of selfishness and insinuation.

I think it would be useful for teenagers because this period is very unstable. They take close to heart every little problem and think that life depends on it. So education in psychology can prevent nervous breakdowns

This is a good idea for me. Because i they teach psycology and depression early in school. At young age children will know how to fight depression and how to overcome it.

Yes, I believe that school must teach psychology and depression and it's treatment earlier because it is one of the major causes of suicide of youth nowadays. Younger generations are the ones who experience depression at early age so we must do something about it as early as possible.

They should do that in Japan, like they should teach the importance of life, not only discipline but coping with failure and depression.

What do you mean with earlier? I think primary school is early but it can be teached in high school. Teenagers may be influenced by depression easily. Therefore teaching psycology in high school will be good for them.

Depression can affect children mentally, physically, emotionally, and socially, which is why it's very important for depression to be identified at an early stage and addressed at school and at home.

No, i think how to behave in appropiate ways should be the first to be learned by kids, and about cares and respect, i think if people behave in respecting others people will lead to more care society and will be able to reduce depression, because depression is the result of our "robotic" society.

Yes, that would be very helpful. Lately It has been confirmed that there isn't much support or study regarding mental health and depression.
It just came to the media and everybody's attention when more and more likely incidents were caused by persons of poor mental health
with depression in schools and the community. They should really make this individuals be more aware of the gravity and
importance of facing and handling such issues. Teach them about hope and positive outlook in life. Guide them
on how to deal with personal problems, stress and peer pressure.

Depends on how early we are talking about here. If you say elementary grades then it is a no for me. I had a hard time passing my psychology subjects during my high school days then how much more if it is earlier.
