I've suffered all my life from severe clinical depression. Depression doesn't mean "feeling sad," it's a physiological problem with the brain which alters both thinking and personality. When I am having a major depressive episode, I retreat into my bedroom and don't come out until it's gone. I do this as a courtesy to others, since I'm well aware that I am a complete asshole during this time. If my roommate tries to talk to me, I warn him that my thinking is impaired, and that unless it's an emergency, he needs to leave me alone until my head clears. It sounds to me like you're trying to intrude on this person during a depressive episode. This is not a smart idea. Let him deal with his depression in his own way, whatever it is. You can't help. And you can make it worse by frustrating him while his brain is broken.

You need a buffer between the two of you, a facilitator to help you communicate. Please seek professional help!!

There really is nothing you can do, other than to just be available for him to talk to when he begins to find his way out. He sounds as if he really needs professional help, but if he won't listen to you at all, it's highly unlikely he would even consider visiting a professional.

I'd say just leave him/her alone. Let him take his time to calm down. Its not easy to comfort somebody in a bad state of mind. And depression can fade away if given time. Just take the person out to get his mind relaxed, make him do things he likes, or go a ball game?? Such things should really help him out.
