If you wanna be a lawyer do it.
Don't worry. Just remember your not the only one.
Just think it through a little bit more.
Don't take any medication for depression or anxiety it's not worth the side effects.
That's not how it works. If he's depressed he should definitely take anti-depressants unless it's mild and can be overcome with CBT, mindfulness/meditation, exercise, and a healthy diet. Depression, anxiety and mental illnesses in general aren't as simple as saying fuck it, thinking it through a bit more and skipping anti-depressants. I'm not here to attack you personally, I'm just trying to avoid having not so good advice handed out.
I know depression personally. I wanted to kill myself many times. I didn't. I didn't want to kill myself for silly reasons like my xbox was taken away or some shit.
It was because I knew that as a brown person I would have to work twice as hard as the white man next to me,
I would be a minority for being atheist,
my dad's dying, etc.
And I'd recommend anti depressants but have you seen the side effects.
Take Valium for example.
Side effects:
Fainting
Dizziness
Thoughts of suicide,
Death, etc
Maybe some minor anti depressants would work but in reality they don't solve anything.
I thought this through because I knew that this man's life is in need of help.
I'm not gonna throw out advice that I haven't researched.
