Yes, there are resources available that can help you with your concerns. The first step is to talk to your son about how he’s feeling and what he's going through. It’s possible that there’s an emotional, mental or even physical issue causing the behaviors you’re seeing. After that, seek out professional advice from a therapist or psychologist who specializes in adolescent/teen mental health. With their help, you will gain a better understanding of where your son is coming from and what kinds of resources may be able to assist him in becoming more self-aware and learning positive social skills and methods of coping with difficult emotions.
