Hi please can you let me know your thoughts.
My son has been low and withdrawn since early December, he's 15 and school pressure getting to him and there is just me and him at home.
I'm struggling to try and decide if it's just a phase maybe seasonal dark weather added in to teen and school work pressure or if it's something more? I've tried talking to him and he is just very quiet (although noisy on PS4) and says he's fed up and has no enthusiasm for anything. He has one out of school club and I've tried assorts to try and encourage sport but he's just not interested.
So my question is how to differentiate between regular teen stuff or if it's something more serious? I've not mentioned depression to him as it would put words in his mouth xx

Teenage depression? Or just typical teen?
