Apologize for your words for coming off as unsolicited life advice/judgement, say you'd like to try being friends again (important: don't say it like "sorry YOU got offended"). Recognize you can't fix his life with your friendship, but you can be a place of comfort to him. Maybe invite him to do something where you don't do a lot of talking, like watch a movie.
