Default My 14 year old brother has depression and I don't know what to do about it.

I have a 14 year old brother, and he has been telling my mom he is depressed. She has him in counsling and they have decited to have him start going 2 times a week over the summer. He talked to me about it the other night and he seems to be using the word "I so depressed or I am depressed right now" My mom also feels like he has an eating disorder. Is there anyway I can ask him these things and find out what he needs for us to do to help him. Is this an age thing?

there isn't anything you can do for your brother other than be supportive and listen to him.
your mom is doing the right thing by getting him into counselling. At his age, there is likely a hormonal component and lets face it the teenage years are rough. If he shares things with you great, but don't probe or you will drive him away from you and any support you can offer. Remind him that the things he does tell you he needs to also be telling his counsellor so they can help him.

Default thanks for everything

In our lives, we suffer a lot.. We walk through on several trials, that causes us to give up. Sometimes we think life is so unfair because of the hindrance we've been through. We struggle a lot to survive, but when things went wrong and everything is gone, we find someone to blame on and ask "why me?"..But things are just not constant, things may come and go, if not today, tommorrow, or never. But we need to value things that comes along our way, looking back the past may serve as our guidance to a new and better path forward..

“Every problem has a gift inside. We seek problems because we want their gifts.”
