Suggest means to handle depression in teens
human
My grandson who is 16 is going through a very bad time. I believe he is depressed and I am looking for the symptoms. He is not interested in anything,does not want to be with his friends, does not want to do school work. He doesn t seem to be able to concentrate on any thing except his computer games. He seems very unhappy. Everyone seems to think this is normal 16 year old behavior. He was an an student his whole life until about 2 years ago. Grades have gone down a lot.

DearWe understand your concernsI went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. I suggest you not to read too much into this behavior. This could not be clinical depression in my opinion. This could just be disappointment. At teen age disappointment could be due to so many reasons like problems with girl friends, problem with teachers, friends, learning problems, concentration, conflict about his role etc. Therefore, you should talk to him what causes this attitude and behavior. As he is able to concentrate on computer games, there is no reason for worry. People with mental problems could not digest computer games. Just take him to a psychological counselor and he shall be alright.If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.Good luck.
