Definitely needs a friend to talk to about what is bothering him. Professional care would be a blessing here.

Good advice.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

So what if the guy has some mental issues? not everyone is "normal" There is not much more to be done besides to just be there for him, and accept his problems.

It'll be hard for you to do ANYTHING since this guy has mental issues. You won't solve anything by talking to him and shit. He needs professional help.

Here's an update for this interested.
Dude left this morning around 9:00, after I left for class. He's been gone all day so far--it's 6:30 here--skipping out on paying rent. He did this last night, leaving at 7:00 and coming back at two in the morning with some soda and cigarettes. He just laughed when asked where he was. I'm really worried about this dude.
As for the people mentioning medication, I don't think he's taking any. Not that he's skipping it, I just don't think he's prescribed any.

At what point do you file a missing persons report? Dude's been out of the house for over 14 hours now.

If hes gone for more 24 hours, definitely contact someone. Honestly though, if he already has some mental issues, and hes not doin anything all that crazy, I'd just let the dude. I mean if talking with him isn't getting you anywhere, and all hes doin is leaving the house and skipping class, I wouldn't worry.
I know some pretty weird guys with mental issues, like this one dude who got ridiculously hammered, got taken to the hospital for alcohol poisoning, then when he was back in his dorm room the next day, he literally didn't leave the room in the following 14 days. We found out he was pretty much stock piling tremendous amounts of food and just pissing in bottles.
My point is, you can really only do so much. If the dude isn't physically hurting himself or anyone else, and he refuses to get help, ya might just have to let him be.

i personally wouldn't file a missing persons report unless it's been well over 48 hours. and i wouldn't sit him down and talk to him as a group, i would have the person closest to him buddy buddy him and see if they can find anything out.

Man, while I'm no expert and I hate to say this, this is pretty much what it comes down to. But, at the same time I think the emerging theme of "you can't take responsibility for this dude" is pretty swell, ya know?
