My son is going through depression. He is not making good choices right now in his life. He is a full time college student trying to get his degree in biology. He also joined the Navy reserves. He chose two weekends ago not to do his reserve duty and didn't call or show up. I feel this was a bad decision. He keeps telling me that he just wants to be alone. I don't know what to do or say. Please help.

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I don't have any want to do anything.
Withdrawal is a common symptom of depression, I do it all of the time.
