Good luck to him, I guess. With the speed at which life is changing now, even if he is successfully brought back and de-aged, it will likely be extremely difficult to adapt.
If future generations can revive someone, they've probably also cured aging. So for adapting they'll have all the time in the world, potentially more.
Time is pretty irrelevant when it comes to mental health issues.
Except that there may be better ways to treat mental health issues in the future.
