Being fired I think. When you get fired, you are basically being told "we don't want you anymore" and then, not being able to find work for quite some time after that, well that just chips away at all self esteem. I also think that him withdrawing from his friends is a sign of depression - and that finding succor in Mum and Nanna was instinctive and survival.
*Just my own ponderings, based on my own experiences
I agree. Ben shows definite depression signs. Reminds me a lot of me. I have family and friends and a job and 2 gorgeous kids, but often feel alone and hopeless. Totally understand where he is coming from
