Nta. Tell him to post on redit or here if he needs to vent super deeply that often. Yall are not his therapist and that box is not his alone to dump super serious shit if that’s not what yall use it for

A tangent that his professor went on in class. It's really light hearted with the occasional venting, but it's pretty much just a place to complain like if you get a flat tire or if you lost a really nice pen. Basically I invited a new friend and he's been in the complaining channel like every day and it borders on serious venting to serious shit.

Venting. I've sent him sites to find therapists and let him know that I'm here, but I also asked him to cool it on the venting. He got upset when I asked that and said that I'm being inconsiderate. I get why he might be upset, but it just doesn't feel like the right place. He needs real help and instead he's venting in a server of 15 where he only knows like 2 of us personally..
