Tears of Tiger - A project to prevent teen alcohol abuse and depression
SETTING - MOOD
The Setting / Mood of the Story........
The story begins at Hazelwood High School, after a basketball game on Novemeber, 7th, at 9:30 pm. Four senior men were traveling on I-75 when they struck a wall causing the death of their friend. After the death of Rob, the story began to get more and more depressing. Keisha would have to guide Andy in the right path which was " Fighting back depression". Sometimes when Andy and Keisha were having fun Andy would get depressed out of no where . Keisha would get very irritated and insenstive towards his feelings.

Impacts on Keisha..........
Keisha had some difficult times throughout the story. She had to find ways to make Andy happy when she wasnt really happy herself . Sometimes she would really get bothered by him asking her depressing questions and would always have to change the subject. After Andy died, Keisha was having a hard time. It seemed like all the depression Andy was going through relapsed and went onto her. To be honest you should never wish or hope or that you will never see someone again because it might come true.

How you can help......
You can help by trying to help those who are depressed focused on happy things, or things that can make them laugh or even smile a little. Make them feel wanted or special. Call them if your worried about them. If they need help, then make sure they have a friend who will help them and encourage them to seek professional help. Everyone needs a person like that. A person that will stay by there sides and have there backs no matter what. That's what everyone needs. That's how you can help a person who is experiencing depression.
