Hi there.Was just reading your post about your son. My 16 year daughter also has OCD with reoccurring negative thoughts and depression plus a mood disorder.I can totally understand what you going through and how fustrating it can be. When she is in a bad headspace it impacts the whole family especially her younger sister. Lucky for us we have found a great psychiatrist, psychologist and doctor and a mental health facility that deals with adolescent mental health. She is also on medication but it has taken a few attemptes to find a good balance that works. The clinic that the psychiatrist admits her in has been a God send especially when she has a medication changes its reassuring to know she is being closely monitored incase of any bad side effects. While she is in there she also undergoes counseling sessions every day. It's also been good respite for my husband me and my other daughter. Not sure where your from but is there a facility that offers these kind of services where your son can interact with other teens going through the same thing. The clinic had been a saviour for my daughter and she has found it comforting to know she is not the only teen going through this.
