I agree with you, that dude needs help.
I hadn't meant my comments as a criticism of you, but rather was trying to change the tone of the statement to create a positive implication to seeking help (rather than a negative).
He isn't going to seek it if he is accused of being "crazy". On the other hand, he may seek it if it is framed as "seek guidance from masters" (like psychologists)
Thanks for being more civil than me .
