I would suggest encouraging them to seek out a psychologist. Whatever happens, make sure that you talk to this individual about their mental illness in a way that lets them know they are valid, that you understand their pain, and that they are NOT crazy or insane. If they need to talk, don't shut them down or invalidate their feelings in any way, such as saying "everyone feels like that at some point or another." Although that kind of comment may seem comforting to you, it makes the individual feel misunderstood and hurt. And if they don't want to talk, don't force them, but make sure they know that it is safe to talk to you, and you will not judge them or condemn them in any way. Let this person know you care about them. Good luck, and as a person with a mental illness, feel free to DM me if you have any further questions throughout the process.
