Time and place for everything.

You usually don't choose when you have a mental breakdown. The big thing here is that he crashed out and not a single one of his friends cared about his wellbeing enough to try and help. Just got told to go to a doctor.

"Oh you broke your arm? Don't worry bro we will support you and set your arm right. No doctor needed."

I mean not every situation is one where people are prepared to drop everything and be the emotional support.

Just got told to go to a doctor

Probably the best advice though

What was he supposed to say?

"Alright bro. I might not be a doctor, but I'll help you get an erection. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)"

Comfort him. Let him know that he's not a leper all of a sudden for having a moment of vulnerability. Listen. Make sure that they understand that they're heard.

These are pretty basic forms of emotional labor that go a long way in helping folks, and can even save lives at times.

This is good advice, thank you for the reality check.
