I put that in there mainly for contextual information. 
Eitherway, thank you all for the advice. |
You are in law school for a reason, if this fellow is being destructive toward you and, your friends, achieving your goals then he must go. It certainly isn't your fault he is depressed, and not your responsibility.
Look, some selfishness is good for you. You started a group to help yourself study. That group also helped others. Constructive selfishness? This person is hindering, not helping. He is destructively selfish. Big difference.
If you feel responsible then point him in the direction of therapy, and time off from school. He shouldn't take you down with him.
