the immaturity angle is right. It'll be at least another ten years before he's mature enough to handle this kind of emotional, grown-up stuff.

And Stringy's right - people who are depressed don't generally talk about being depressed. He's just miserable, disappointed in himself, angsty and craving attention. Like a thirteen year-old.
