He got broken up with by the girl he thought was "the one"
He had a panic attack on the way to my place and had to pull over to calm down
He then gave me his gun and ammo and told me to keep them away from him
He scheduled an appointment with a therapist on Friday

I took off work and we went to the beach today. he seemed to be in a way better mood but is now in the shower listening to emo music, crying, and drinking a few cans of beer

What the fuck do I do?

You guys are awful lol

If anything, I would give him props for having scheduled to see a therapist. I know there's still a stigma at times where you have to see a therapist, it means you're a loony. So I would just tell him he is taking a step in the right direction by taking initiative and changing his life.

That's what I'm doing right now. I think his mom called him and I'm trying to ignore it but I can hear him sobbing in between sentences

I am gay but my boyfriend is already a little annoyed about the gun so I don't think he'll be cool with that :(

Yeah, it's a pretty great idea and he did that on his own. I tried to tell him it's a good idea and that he's taking baby steps
It's not just the girlfriend, y'know? He's been through some shit and has pretty much had anxiety and depression problems for the last 6 years or so

I would give him props too for appropriately giving you his piece. He understands he's not mentally fit right now, but absolutely took the right step. Showed he still values his life.

This is the correct answer. He needs a friend and support. Give him his space, but be available.

Torn between two minds. Is either correct? Perhaps together.....but how? Can it be done?

Yeah if it only happened last night, he's still going through it. He made a great choice by being proactive and scheduling a therapist appointment. A couple days to just let it out is completely normal.

i had that time when i was angry, letting it out is good just not directly at the people that wronged me.

Give him a bit more time. if you truly are his friend and he trusts you THIS much in his vulnerable state at least try to be there for him and let him work this out...now that said if it gets to the point where you feel he's there for too long and you need your space/whatever then talk to him about that. but be tactful. assure him you're still there for him and all that...

Legit, you gotta set some ground rules for how long he can stay/when he has to start paying for stuff.

It's a shit thing to bring up, but discuss with your bf how long you'd be comfortable with him there and then give him the business.
