Slavery in the Chesapeake region began in 1619, when a Dutch trading vessel carrying 20 African men entered Jamestown, Virginia. The slave trade expanded in the following years. Between 1700 and 1770, the region's slave population grew from 13,000 to 250,000. By the beginning of the Revolutionary War in 1775, Black people made up nearly one-third of the region's population.
In the 1800s, the Chesapeake region became a focal point of the national controversy surrounding slavery because it was in the unique position of spanning free, border and slave states:
“Free states,” which did not support slavery, made up the northern portion of the region.
“Slave states” encompassed the southern portion of the region.
“Border states” allowed slavery but were allied with the free states, further complicated the region's politics.

On New York Times, written by Sabrina Tavernize last 2016, she revealed that not any factor can cause it. However, it can be triggered through social media. It normally is evident among adolescents where insecurities are said t be high. Social media became a game to gain favor and popularity. It establishes popularity through the number of friends and the numerous things they do in school. It also added that young aged people start being young women in their age. 

It further pointed girls as having higher rates of being prone to depression unlike the rate of boys.
