Question

Teen depression

Asked for Male, 15 Years

I have a 15 year old brother who I'm suspecting is suffering from depression. He never opened up about it. He was a bright kid In the early days of school. Now in 10th grade, he's not taking in the situation and importance well. He's studying in cbse syllabus since the beginning. I noticed his fall of grades around his 6th standard. He's been down ever since then. I've personally been a victim to depression and anxiety. Now i don't want to see my brother the same way. I'm seeking for help with this situation. Please, if there are any ways or any professional doctors who know how to treat, pls let me know. I'll be more than happy to try the possibility.
