Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] I have a depressed housemate, the major issue for me to deal with this is that he is very hard on himself and has always hated to cause an inconvienience to anyone so when I begin to express concern he stops talking because he doesn t want to be a pain to me. He is completely withdrawn the only contact with people he has outside of work is with me and my other housemate. He is unmotivated to do anything at all including buying food, going to the gym, going to faculty meetings or even cleaning his room. This is a massive worry as he is usually a healthy eater, a regular (daily) gym attender, goes to all the meetings and keeps his room spotless. This has happened over the course of a few months and I want him to be happy and don t know how to help. Can you please tell me what i need to do
[|AI|]  Hi dear,first need detail regarding his symptoms like whether his sleep adequate, appetite adequate?is he easy irritable, abusive to anybody, any fear, suspicious over anyone ? What ever you described about him suggest that he might have depression or negative schizophrenia. But to differentiate between two detail history and mental status examination is must.sucChatDoctorplain started immediately or gradually ? There are many medication like antidepressants and anti-psychotic. Consult psychiatrist first.  Thank you.
