My lovely 12 year old DS is having a hard time at the mo and it’s so hard to know if it’s hormones mixed in with pandemic or actually depression.
He says he feels sad all the time & cries a lot. He’s become very sensitive to friends- always feeling left out, worried he’s missing out, taking stuff personally. He said earlier that he wanted to die but then got really upset & said he didn’t mean it and had scared himself. He has been going out with mates, cycling & football etc but it’s like he’s carrying the weight of the world. I am going to ring the doc on Monday as it’s so upsetting & I am so worried. There is stress and tension at home- me & DP aren’t getting on well with all the current pressure.
Aibu - I am worrying myself sick over it all- should I try and get him some counselling? He said to me earlier that he only wants to talk to me & he is good at telling me what’s wrong. But it’s so up and down
