[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the PP. Depression can look like many things, if your son is telling you he feels this way then you just believe him despite how he looks to you. It is extremely common for adolescent boys to refuse counseling, I would ask him what he thinks might help. And thank him for telling you! That's wonderful that he told you, it says something very positive about your relationship with him. Did the doctor you took him to administer a proper depression screening or did he ask random questions? Either way, I'm very bothered that he told him he didn't see signs of depression because he told him he doesn't believe him. Believe him! He may not have answered the questions as he wanted to because he's embarrassed but he is telling you something is off. [/quote]
