Snake, my encouragement is when he breaks down crying because he misses me or got rejected and is basically, "you are intelligent, wonderful, and smart. It wasn't the right fit just like with internship A but it allowed you to have internship B which you loved beyond measure so don't give up hope. Things will work out in the end and no matter what I love you." That is my encouragement. He has told me he is going to continue looking out east (applied to two jobs today) and he might try and save from his next paycheck to see a therapist.

hvert, he has a job as security at a multi-mansion country club area, which he hates and has no chance for promotion.
