What possible psychiatric problems can a person develop in the following scenario?

Hi doctor,

I do not want a therapy, but I would like your opinion on what kind of personality or problems a person could develop as an adult if the following happened to him as a child. He got sick as a kid from meningitis in the 60´s. His uncle was a pediatric and placed him on a first check in the hospital to make sure that the child as a patient was calm. He forbade his mother from seeing him in the hospital, and the mother did not come after a dramatic goodbye scene from the kid at the hospital. He was 4 going 5 at that time. In the hospital, he was tied up to make sure the baxters did not get disturbed. At night, his father and the doctor sneaked unannounced to grab him for a spine puncture. As the kid wrestled and cried from the pain of the puncture, the uncle was very angry and said that kids should not cry. So, the next time it happened, the kid shut up an vowed not to make a sound. After seven days at the hospital, the kid was then taken to the uncle's house where his aunt took care of him, and this during a full month. Only after a month, he saw his mother back.

How to confirm depression?

Hi doctor,

I just wanted to ask a few questions and get an opinion. I have been experiencing symptoms of depression for the last two years and I do not know what to do. I do not want to get my family involved unless I know anything for sure and I do not even know if I have depression. I have not had any bad experiences that would have affected me enough to make me depressed and my family does not have a history of mental illness, which is what makes me waver. I feel numb, sad and worthless most of the time. I have found myself becoming more and more irritable and spending more and more time alone. I do not know whether this is just something my mind has conjured up or there is something actually wrong. I feel mad at myself whenever I think about this as I do not have any reason for feeling the things I feel. Anyway, I was just wondering if it sounds like I have depression or not. I really want to see a doctor, but I want to give my parents some explanation since they do not really understand how bad mental illness can be. Thank you.
