Dear Therapist:
Our 13-year-old son has never really wanted to go to camp. Every year he asks if he can stay home, and now that summer is approaching, he is asking again.
He has gone the past two years, and although he felt this way beforehand, he ended up liking it once he was there.
Part of us feels he should push himself to go. At the same time, we wonder if camp simply is not a good fit for him. We are also concerned about what staying home w …
Dear Therapist:
Our teenage son is struggling. He sleeps a lot of the day, is not doing well in yeshiva, and several people who know him are worried that he seems depressed.
The confusing part is that he insists he is fine. He says everyone is overreacting and does not understand why people are so worried.
What we are trying to understand is how someone who is clearly not doing well can be so disconnected that he thinks that everything is fine.

Dear Therapist:
I am writing about a young man who has been trying hard to find a job. He is capable and responsible, but he is naturally quiet and somewhat shy.
He has gone on a number of interviews that did not lead anywhere, and he is starting to worry that something about the way he comes across is holding him back. The more it happens, the more self-conscious he becomes, which only seems to make things harder.
How much can nervousness or shy …

The challenge is that much of his frustration seems to come from difficulties with organization, follow-through, and daily functioning. He does not have much interest in working on practical strategies.
We sometimes feel that his low self-esteem is a result of not fu …
Dear Therapist:
I feel like eating disorders can be hard to recognize early because they do not always look extreme at first.
Someone close to me has become much more focused and rigid around food and eating habits, and I am not sure what is normal and what is cause for concern. Since nothing looks severe from the outside, it is hard to know when people should start paying attention.
What are some signs that eating behaviors may be becoming unhea …
Dear Therapist:
I have struggled with anxiety and depression on and off for years. Recently, after a stressful medical situation, my symptoms became worse, and I returned to therapy.
My therapist has recommended medication. I have always been somewhat hesitant because of concerns about side effects and personality changes. My husband is also strongly opposed to medication, believing it can alter personality and cause emotional “numbness.&rd …
