Dear aboutson,
Do not underestimate the seriousness of your son's moods and behavior. Please sit down with him and talk to him, it may be difficult in the indian context, but some parents can do it easily.
Just talk to him, ask him what is bothering him, it could be his love-life, career, some health issues. Tell him how much you love him, and that you support him in everything. Do not try to judge him because you find out something that you don't agree with. Everything in life is ever-changing, jobs, careers, money, it all comes and goes, but it's extremely important to have faith in God, and stay calm and composed.
Considering the very high rate of suicide in India among young people, I think we should take these things very seriously. Also, worst case scenario, if you can't talk to him, ask a good friend of his to talk to him. And follow up with full support and unconditional love for your son.
May the Divine help us all.
Om Namah Shivaya!
