[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 658810, member: 14557"] Yes, that certainly is quite obvious sign that things are wrong. With my kid, in Twitter, it is only stranger who like, retweet or comment, when when he tweets something more authentic, also people he actually know tend to add it to favourites or comment. And basically same in Fb. Yeah, some of his about 1000 'friends' will like or comment, but if you look at it, there may be well over 50 likes and none of them from people who actually know him that much or care about him. I do know that at times his real friends actually do try to reach him after this type of messages through more private channels, but he tends to either be flippant or lash out; basically same how he reacts when I or hubby will ask if he is okay at times like these. There is of course chance he can pick himself up without major crisis. This may be reaction of starting therapy again. Reaction to likely trouble to find his place in new team because at this point there are mostly just kids like him training together, more experienced guys are often given permission to train independently through summer. Ache tends to do better in more mixed group. It may be reaction to change in coaching staff. It is something different than what he was expecting. Getting used to that can take some time. He may be in conflict with this new coach, wouldn't be a first coaching relationship he starts with a big conflict (and they may still turn out well.) Or maybe he has an issue with the new town and it takes some getting used to. You never know with Ache. Two weeks and he will be home for four weeks. And he tends to calm down and do better at home, so I do hope he makes it till that and is able to shift gears to adapt to what ever it is after that breather. But no, waiting and watching this unravel is not kind to my nerves, even though I'm still somewhat hopeful that this may not end to some major crisis this time. [/QUOTE]
