How can I help my anxious friend?
user
I think you could start by talking about his anxiety and trying to hear his concerns. Is there any specific issue he’s worried about?

He is worried about not being able to pay his bills. He lost his job.

I would suggest finding out if your friend is ready to make changes to his life in order to keep the bills paid. If so, you could offer to help with setting up new financial systems and advising how to go about setting up the systems.

I could try to help but it is hard right now. I don't know what to say to help.
