I recently found out a good friend of mine from the past, is suffering from serious depression, drug abuse (The prescribed kind) and was admitted in hospital for taking an overdose and scalding himself with hot water. Its unknown if he did this on purpose or not but its worrying to say the least.
He has a mild form of autism, and when I knew him back in school, he was awkward but nevertheless a geniunely good guy, very intelligent, relatively healthy and in shape; he could have done very well in life. He is 23 years old now and since leaving school he has just been staying at his family's house, really he has done nothing; aside from working in a charity shop and volunteering at an old people's home.
I am not in regular contact with this friend, and he his difficult to get hold of, but I am very concerned as it is sounding like he is on his way out.
I don't trust the doctors and medical establishment in general, as this depression among men seems to be very red pill based (if that makes any sense).
My biggest concern is that one day in the near future he will try to kill himself properly. He does have friends and parents who do love him and try their best.
I suppose the main point of this message, is just to see what can be the best course of action for me to take, to help get out of this state. There has to be some red pill form of guidance in matters like this.
Many thanks
