In the end, even if you can get him into therapy, he's not going to get anything out of it unless he himself wants the help. I think the best thing you can do is talk to him and keep on the same brain level.
Yes, I know it's impossible to diagnose someone on internet but I was just wondering if depression may have similar symptoms, in some cases? Well I tried to talk to him, that's when he told be about seeing stuff etc. Unfortunately, he thinks that he doesn't need help... Like you said, I guess that's the biggest problem.
Wonderwall., he just said that he doesn't need a counselor, and that if he goes to see one, they will try to 'talk him into having a mental illness'... And yes, I do have some support but he doesn't really want to open up to anyone, he only really talked to be about all those issues.
Thank you for replying guys.
