16yr old boy down

My 16 year old boy is down, thankfully he talks to me and tells me he feels sad and cant remember being happy and he cries now and then and he feels nervous all the time, doesn't feel he fits in. He has friends and a girlfriend. He is very short when he speaks to us and he's always winding his 14yr old brother up or saying the odd horrible things to him. We always ask him to come out with us or sit with us and watch a film etc... but he rather sit ion his bedroom. He is in the final year of school and got no motivation to study. I've phoned doctor numerous times but as he doesn't want to harm himself they are not really interested. I've also made school aware of how he is feeling. I just feel so helpless.

Bump. I’m sorry he feels this way. Hopefully others will respond.
