I've been in the place where apathy and laziness is easier and seems preferable to going through hardship and changing things. Getting out of a pit is hard. When you dig yourself deeper, it gets harder. This guy's spent much of the past three years doing exactly that.

When he hits rock bottom, things will change. I actually would have suggested the course you took some time ago; I'm not big on this train of thought usually, but sometimes it's true that the faster someone hits bottom, the better it may be for them in the end.

He wants people to leave him alone? Leave him alone. He'll see soon enough that it's a lot worse that way. Just like I did.
