Today my brother and him go in an agrument and it ended up with my brother getting him in one of those hand locks from behind and pushing him against the table. My cousin also started to cry, which is very unlike him. My cousin is only 14 and is very rebelius. He has a lot of deep anger (I guess that's what you would call it). Anyway right now he is actting really werid. He is making werid noises and stuff. I can hear him from upstairs. This is also out of character for him.
What could be wrong with him? I am sort of worried for him.

I'm pretty sure he isn't on drugs.

When someone's 14, it's hard to tell if they're just going through adolescence or if it's something more.
I suggest you mention it to his parents or guardians. If you've noticed that something isn't quite right with him, you're probably not the only one. If you're still concerned, but his parents don't seem to be, approach your cousin yourself and tell him you've been worried about him. He might appreciate your reaching out.

Being rebel indeed is a demostration of lacks and a cry for care and attention already on the opposite of the belief that is a demostration of strenght, at the end the rebelion always turn against the rebel and make him more predictible and fragil, until can develop a serious case of depression. Maybe talking before the depression attack will be the best to do, also is 14, soon will be confusion years stage.

you should have a talk with your brother, not your cousin. tell him you are worried about your cousin and tell him that youv noticed him change a lot .ask him what is going on with him and if he noticed anything different.
get your brother to talk to him. i dont think your cousin would like it if you talked to him about his. he might feel embarassed.
but see what is up. and if nothing happends then you go and talk to him.
my little brother went through the same thing your cousin is going through. he was bullied when he was younger. all the guys at school would push him and hit him and talk mean to him. my brother was raised to be nice and not to talk back to people mean. but after this went on for a while my brother started to change. like how your cousin is acting. he would get so angre for the smallest things. he would cry if we didnt listen to him. in some words he was very sensetive to things and would become angre afterward shortly.
this type of acting doesnt go away over night. it took us months befor my little brother got back to his old self.
we just told him not to hang around thos bad kids. you see, he wanted to be their friends since they were the coolest. but got himself in a bad group. they would make fun of him at first and that is how he changed to bad. but after my little brother stopped hanging out with them he changed to good. he understands now that he doesnt have to act out his anger. he talks about it now.
i hope your cousin gets better soon. and he cant do it by himself. he needs support from your brother and you. and get your family to support him too. i mean emotionaly. sit and talk to him and ask him how his day went and do active things with him.
i know he will be good later on. this takes time so have paitence.

Only two things- He's depressed and using drugs or he's just depressed or has some other major psychological problem. Either that or you are imagining that there is a problem. Either way it's one of those three things!

Is your cousin the "weak male" in your male pack? You know how guys are...there is always one guy (boy or man) who is the proverbial "punching bag" so it this him? Maybe he has had enough and is establishing his authority. Have your brother apologize (for real) and help your cousin to deal with this anger.
Never jack up family....family is ALL you have....there is no removal of a family member.
Forgive and forget...

If something's happened that made him full of "deep anger" then maybe he's depressed? I hope not. Try talking to him too. Maybe he's just lonely!
Good Luck!

At that age his harmones can make him feel happy one minute and angry the next. Try and treat him kind and not pick on him. Also let him know you are there is he needs you.

He could be depressed, he could be using drugs. I would have him talk to your family doctor, and have doc recommend something, (therapy, counseling, etc.)

depression is anger without motivation. in your cousins case he may be building motivation
