The study focused on social support role as a protective factor (against depression) in 12–17 years old adolescents’ life. Strategies of coping with stress were also studied. It was found that the adolescents’ social network consisted of many subjects, mainly mothers, fathers, friends, siblings and important adults. Sources of social support changed with adolescents’ age and gender. Satisfaction with received help buffered the depression in adolescents though the relation was weak. Strategies of coping: reformulation, worry, ignore the problem, hard work and achieve, social action and concentrate on leisure activities were predicting the depression in adolescents. Further studies should focus on the relation between the type of support provided to adolescents and depression.
