He's always had a self loathing problem, and I'm worried something is gonna happen . . . Is there anything I can do?
Definitely try to check up on him - maybe email or call him? If he has a tumblr maybe you could try to drop something in his askbox.
As one of his best friends, you should definitely try to contact him as soon as you can. Definitely assure him that you're there for him, and try your best to comfort him. Listen to him, allow him to freely express his feelings and DON'T judge. And if you think there is a genuine concern that he may be suicidal, don't be afraid to directly ask if he's considering suicide. Asking about suicidal thoughts will not make someone commit suicide.
Do not stop talking to him make him talk to you and do not let him leave. I'm not kidding. I had the same problem with a friend of mine. This advice really helped me. you need to talk to him and figure out whats wrong and help him. Hope this helps.
Hi there! As the others have said, keep talking to him, and try to give him encouraging and positive feedback about the things that are going well for him. Try to ask questions around what he feels is wrong in his life at the moment. Offer him your support, and if you can try to call him and talk with him. Also, you can gently suggest to him that he should try seeking some help to talk and let things out of his system. Does his/your school have counseling services?
