Behavioral changes are very common for teenagers. They can become more solitary, sleep more often and most certainly have more of an attitude. However these same changes can occur with anxiety, depression other mental health disorders or stress. It is important to observe your teenager closely for other changes. If they are eating less, avoiding normal activities or gatherings with friends, having trouble sleeping or seem sadder than normal then you should be concerned.
