Teens who avoid social interaction, group activities, or school may be showing early signs of social anxiety or depression. How do caregivers distinguish between temporary shyness and more persistent withdrawal? What interventions help teens re-engage while respecting their emotional limits?
 
Yes, many researchers suggest that Gen Z shows unique anxiety patterns, often tied to social withdrawal. Constant digital exposure, academic pressures, and uncertainty about the future can amplify feelings of isolation. Withdrawal may be both a symptom and a coping mechanism, signaling the need for tailored mental health support.
