Concerns about mental health of my friend

5 Comments

For the last couple weeks, my friend has constantly been complaining to me about how "stupid" he is compared to the other people he knows there. He is one of the smartest people I know and is talking to me about how difficult his experience has been so far. Recently he has sent me this

"It is weird that I feel like I just wanna go home, hide from my jealousy of others and cry in class sometimes"

"I mean you know how concerned I am with education and my future so when I see 90% of the class smarter than me I, I just wanna give up
This is like the 3 Friday in a row where I have just sat at my desk and cried for like 10 minutes"

I am quite concerned with his mental health and have told him it is an issue, but he disagrees. I want more opinions about this issue and see what I can do

*Note they are in teenage years

It's a problem but not defined enough to seek help 2
It's just a part of life and will go away with time 2
He needs to see help about this issue 7
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    he just need to feel good about himself, try doing things that he is good in and th things that he love, this will surely help his self esteem.

        If he truly has depression then he will need therapy and possibly antidepressants to fix it.
        If its just a phase then it will pass on its own.
