he said he had had these urges since he was a kid. that he knew the consequences of those actions but that it would feel right to do it
i tried convincing him that he didn't really want to do that and that the only reason he felt like that was because that he doesn't love himself and that we're all connected so he's really only hurting himself.
he was like yeah i don't love myself.
i'm not sure if i helped or not. anyone deal with something like this?

He might be a psychopath.

yeah, i just don't know how i would really go about that though
i would say this individual has manic and depressive episodes, cause over long periods of time he will be in super cleaning mode and in an agitative state, and then other periods of time he will be super depressed and unmotivated. there's a lot that goes on with him.

No. And I hope I never will. I think I would seriously consider getting him help. Or at least talk to family members of his if I knew them.
Tough one OP. It sounds like you did the right thing right there and then though. You were there for him which is important!
I wish I could give stronger advice but I'm sure others will chime in too.

If you don't know any of his family members personally, you could try browsing through facebook or something and send em a message or ask them to call you or something.

I've had to deal with something similar to that. Long story short an army buddy of mine said he knew his wife was cheating on him while he was in Iraq. Said he was going to kill her when we got back. Nobody, including myself, took him seriously until we found out he murdered her and his daughters the night we got back to the states.
Don't let that shit slide. Take it seriously. Tell someone in his family and make sure you don't end up on the receiving end of his decision making process.
That's crazy man. I'm sorry to hear you have to deal with that

That reminds me of the time when one of my buddies right after High School started talking about killing himself on facebook, and seemed pretty serious, and I contacted all of the friends who he hung out with more frequently and they all were like "Nah, he would never kill himself. He has a hot girlfriend."
I also made a thread on the Shroomery about the things he'd been saying and a bunch of losers responded saying shit like, "Man, that kid sounds like a pussy. I actually hope he does kill himself." and "That faggot friend of yours doesn't have the balls to kill himself."
Then he killed himself.

Wonderfully supportive place the Shroomery can be. At times.

Sheekle... That's a shame... I'm sorry to hear that. People can be assholes even on a site that is mostly (from my experience) loving and supportive.. OP, best wishes to you brother. Good luck and don't give up on your friend. Hopefully he will realize you want to help him.
