A friend of mine believes he is dying. He had a friend that just died from cancer and now he thinks the same is gonna happen to him. please I need advice on what to say to my friend. He is frantic and some times he wont stop crying in front of me. I am so worried at this point.
Tell him that he isn't sick, he's ok, and that even though his friend got cancer, doesn't mean he's going to get it because it's not contagious. If this doesn't work, consider bringing him to therapy
after that he will say he is still dying. anything else I could say to him.
Please help this is way to complicated for me and my friend is seriously in need of help.

Tell him to stop trying to get attention just because he's in pain from personal loss. Cancer is STILL a rare disease and it absolutely cannot be contracted from someone else. Unless he has a significant family history to worry about then tell him to STFU and learn to process his emotions without putting other people through shit
I am just not sure what to say about him losing a friend. he is seriously upset and feels like nothing will help him get over it. maybe thats why he thinks he dying

Your friend needs professional help. Maybe a psychologist could help.
He wants someone who actually cares about him not weird person who knows nothing about him. He is constantly crying whenever the friend who died is brought up.

Tell him to see a doctor and research his family history for a history of cancer and if he doesn't, tell him to shut the fuck up.
He'll likely get over it in a few weeks anyway. I've known people who get all freaked out when someone dies or gets sick and then they "change their ways" to be healthy but fall back into being normal only a few weeks later.
