You can only do the best you can do. Your heart was in the right place. Sometimes a person who is depressed is very sensitive. Hopefully he will realize in your effort to help him, you talked about him to try and help the situation. I have done this too, my son is depressed, and I had to talk to others to be able to cope, and try and help. Maybe with a little time, you can explain to him how much you care. ginnie
