Scared for my Best Friend

I hope my friend is ok.i hope and pray he is ok.
Hes the nicest, brightest, most creative, most wonderful guy in the world.
When we first started talking a while back we'd talk every day about art and bugs and whatnot.

He had a couple of dissociative episodes and his boyfriend (who i thought was a nice guy) was treating him like dirt during them. I now hate that man.
He got real depressed and his boyfriend (now ex) left him. And then hes gotten worse.

Im trying to be a good friend but i know i can overreact sometimes. He knows i over react sometimes. I dont want to lose him as a friend. I dont want to upset him by seeming to worried or clubgy and not giving him space.

He was still texting me each day but less and less and now its been almost 2 days since ive heard from him. And im scared. I wouldnt usually worry. But hes not his usual self. Oh god, im praying every day that he'll just text back and tell me hes alright. Thats it. Thats all i want to know is that hes still alive and I'd give him all the space in the world.

He said he was sick and going through withdrawals cause hes not taking his meds and that scares me so so much. He knows i worry about him sometimes so he doesnt mind if i text him a bit of times before he answers back but im still trying not to be a pest. I dont know what to do cause im worried and he wont answer when i call.

So i cap it at 5 texts usually but i just sent a 7th today. Just to check.
Im just scared and i told him id leave him alone if he wants space but im woreied cause those medications aint just stuff you can drop cold turkey like that.

His familys there at least. I dunno. Im just so scared for him. I dont want to see a message from his family that he died. Or that he had to be institutionalized.
