That sounds so rough. You get the job you always wanted, only to live in constant anxiety.

I really hope things change for the better.

Oh it's been rough, and we've been friends since grade school. I went a different route but he went with the game developer route. It's hard even for me to get him to chill out a bit these days. I know he's not suicidal; but I do wonder if the stress will kick him in, he's been getting sick a lot so I can tell he's got a lot of strain on his immune system from the constant stress.

Stress like that is way worse than it looks. It wears you out from the inside. To your point- it weakens your immune system, which makes everything else worse.

It really is heartbreaking what this world can do to people. I hope they can find success is whatever direction they take.

Yep, I'll keep talking to them every other day but hopefully it gets better. I even offered them a place to stay if shit hits the fan.
