It is difficult to say just by these few symptoms. But there is good reason to believe that there is depression. However, that is not of so much concern as that you are still in your teens, and these developments do not augur well especially at the late teens. During this phase, you will experience a spurt in your male sex hormone, testosterone, and it is also the last stage to resolve any childhood issues that was not given adequate attention: in a sense it is a double whammy of problems. So you must meet with a counselor and get some help in determining the specific problem and deal with it. These symptoms may develop into more serious pathologies and because of your age you could resolve them now and save a lot of trouble later.
