Concern regarding my 19 year old brother
My brother is 19 years old. We have noticed the following behavioural concerns: * He is very aggressive in normal day-to-day conversations. * His facial expressions and behaviour change noticeably when he gets angry. * He often brings up incidents from 5–6 years ago and becomes excessively angry about them. * He seems unable to let go of past issues and holds resentment. * He has difficulty maintaining friendships and mostly interacts with family. * He can be very defensive and finds it difficult to accept when he is wrong. * Sometimes he says he feels depressed. * He makes statements like, “I could have become an engineer, doctor, or whatever I wanted.” We would like to understand if there could be an underlying mental health concern This has been happening from last 2 years and as family we are being in lot of stress

It sounds incredibly challenging and stressful for your family to navigate these changes.Based on the patterns you described there can be  underlying mental health concerns.A comprehensive evaluation by a clinical psychologist is the most important step.Late  adolescence or early adulthood is a highly critical window where many psychological conditions or mood disorders can surface and intensify.
