    Ok first you should take him to the vet to see if there is any thing wrong with him medically.Then if he is ok you should get him a buddy that should help.

    you don't always have to take it to the vet. its a waste. they're gonna tell you simple things unless something is truly wrong (*like worms or such)

    for diarhhea, everyday mix some dry oatmeal with your guineas pellet food. as you keep doing this, his diarrahea will stop.

    im sorry about your other guinea pig. but because you guinea pig here is depressed you need to spend extra time with him. talk to him, let him know its alrigth. it may sound stupid, but they listen.
