Depression : Rather than attempt a litany of symptoms that would not fit in the space to begin with, I am referring you to two separate articles, one on depression and one on social anxiety disorder that should be quite informative. Best wishes. En.Wikipedia.Org/wiki/major_depressive_disorder en.Wikipedia.Org/wiki/social_anxiety_disorder.

Have you asked him: how he is feeling? Do you want to know if he has a depressed mood or if he has clinical depression? The only real way to know if he has clinical depression (with accuracy) is for him to seek psychiatric/ psychological assessment. If you are referring to mood - ask him. Take care.
