Fear rollplay in MS13
In the MS13 fear is a powerful weapon used by the gang members. Members found out a long time ago that fear would become a powerful tool used by them to control the territories and to avoid other gangs to try and invade their areas. Also this new found tool fear is used to avoid confrontation also and many other types of problems that they can face. Fear is commonly used in the gangs but in a gang as organized as the Mara salvatrucha or the MS13 fear turns to be a part of their lives, also fear is what makes them react so violent. Fear makes you nervous, being nervous make's you react violently. Apart from being a tool it becomes what they are, fear has evolved into a way of living for them.
Do to the fear they spread they have managed to spread over thirty three states across the United States. Also they have spread almost worldwide; they use fear to recruit people to the gang, also they use fear to increase a anger they all poses within. People tend to do more out of fear tan out of any other emotion because this emotion releases an adrenalin rush and allows us use our survival instinct. In an internal and external way MS instill fear. Inside the gang mistakes are a synonym of death. The severe punishment prevents people from betrayal, not obeying superiors, and from leaving the gang. Outside the MS, normal civilians also fear people involved with this criminal movement. Their harshness maintains people scared and unmorally they earn their respect. Their actions cause panic, and from them you learn to live trying not to have any type of contact and respecting them. If not you could lose your lifeThey are linked with fear because of the inhuman things they do to live. They kill torture and control areas to get their profits also to be respected and be an important part of the gang you have to kill some people and even go to jail.

Articles and couses on depression :)
Depression Couses of Depression
1. The biological causes of depression are physical changes in the brain, which can be caused by problems with the neurotransmitters and neurons. Also changes in the body's balance of hormones, which can be a result of problems in the thyroid, menopause, or other condition. Inherited traits are also involved in causes of depression.
2. The environmental causes of depression are life events such as the death or loss of familiars of loved ones, financial problems, and high stress. Early childhood traumas can be also a cause of depression, traumatic events during childhood such as abuse or loss of a loved one which can cause permanent changes in the brain.
3. Cognitive causes of depression are learned through relationships, unfavorable life situations often in childhood and the formative years. People view the world in a negative way, this negative view is usually a distortion of reality.

Articles on Depression
Article #1
The study was conducted by Dr. Mahmood I. Siddique, clinical associate professor of medicine at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick, N.J. It was presented June 9, 2010, in San Antonio, Texas, at SLEEP 2010, the 24th annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies LLC. Too much daytime sleepiness was indicated by a score of 10 or higher on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and mood was evaluated with a validated depression scale. The results indicated that high school seniors were three times more likely to have strong depression symptoms if they had excessive daytime sleepiness.
Article#2
The study was conducted by Lawrence T. Lam, Ph.D., of the School of Medicine, Sydney, and the University of Notre Dame, Fremantle, Australia, and Zi-Wen Peng, M.Sc., of the Ministry of Education and SunYat-Sen University, Guangzhou, China, in August 2010. It will appear in the October print issue of Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine. 1,041 teens in China were assessed for depression and anxiety using previously validated scales. They also completed a survey to identify pathological Internet use, including questions that reflect typical behaviors of addiction. At the beginning of the study, 62 participants were classified as having moderately pathological use of the Internet, and 2% were severely at risk. Nine months later, the adolescents were re-assessed for anxiety and depression; 2%

Biological couses of violence
First, the biological causes. These are the easiest to talk about, because there is not much to say.
Many biological factors have been nominated as candidates for causes of violence. Hormones like testosterone, transmitters in the brain like serotonin, and blood abnormalities like hypoglycemia are only a few that have been mentioned.
Biological factors do not have to be hereditary. They could be caused by a head injury, poor nutrition, or environmental events, such as exposure to lead paint.
Fortunately, the National Academy of Sciences just reviewed hundreds of studies on the relationship between biology and violence, and it came to one clear bottom-line conclusion: "No patterns precise enough to be considered reliable biological markers for violent behavior have yet been identified." The National Academy of Sciences found many promising leads that should be vigorously pursued by researchers, but so far, it could point to nothing as a proven, or even close to proven, biological risk factor for future violence.
This means that There are only a few reasons why people tend to be violent on the world coused by the biological factors. This factor has the least couses for example it does not have to be coused by hereditary problems coused by the mother or the father. Some of thif factors can ocur after an acident or some sort of problem. some of them can be coused by problems during pregnency and many other problems likle this one. there is no patern determined percisely how this works out. unfortunetly this problems cannot chage and this might be soimthing all humans have problems with this only that some are more likely to expose themselves than others.
