I've taken my 12 year to the doctor for what many people seem to think is depression but the pediatrician that has known us all my son's life says he's not depressed he is just going through what allot of kids his age go through when they are hitting puberty. Maybe he's right, but is anyone else dealing with a kid that nothing seems to make them happy?

I used to be like that when I was younger but my mom just let me be and I just work through it it might work for him...

We need WAY more info than this. You need to provide us with some examples.
