If nothing else, if you really believe that he is going to attempt suicide and Sunday comes along, call the police and ask them to do a welfare check on him. Tell them why you think he is in danger. If they determine that he is a danger to himself, they can probably get him hospitalized and evaluated for treatment.
I'm sure this is very stressful to watch this scenario unfold, but you can only do so much. Have you talked to him about getting some help? Offer to go with him if he's reluctant to go by himself. Hopefully, he won't go through with it. I wish you all the best and hope your friend changes his mind.
If you believe that there is serious risk, you could contact this persons family or specifically a guardian if they are under 18. The risk of suicide means that this person may need to be hospitaliized until they are no longer a risk to themselves. Your friend might hate you for it at first, but in the long run they will see how you care and how it will help them.
You might also want to speak to his girlfriend and see what her side of the story is. Maybe you can speak to her about his behaviour to find out what has been happening recently that might cause this suicidal intention, and maybe even find out what could help him.
By the way, I suggest that you avoid words like "emo" as they have a stigma attatched and can affect the way that people view the mentally ill. I know how much it has in my community, and I wouldn't want that for others.
I see how this is complex. These things often are. I'm sorry to hear about his family. I bet they are a huge part of his problems.
What kind of stroner do you mean?
I agree with the idea of getting the police or even an ambulance to come check up on him at the time he said he will commit suicide. Hopefully being hospitalized this time might be more successful? There isn't much else you can do, other than try counsel him.
he is like stronger from the first time he did it .. and well, I dont really want to get that involved .. he would liike go on anbsp; murder hunt for me ,... not that he is that destructive .. but he is like supper man .. i dont know how .. but he is like strong.. we had a ping pong fight .. and we sortta gave eachother bruises .. but mine kept going like a green colour .. by the way .. we were shooting them acros the table ... but uhhm, he just is really depressed and he doesnt know I know .. he told my friend .. who told me .. and I jsut dont want him to feel that we aren't his friends .. but he just .. :( .. just .. well, er ... he just tries to resist the help.
I hope you can sorrta have another idea, that doesnt involve hospitalization and the authorities... and the ping pong thing was a for fun game .. not a litterly Im guunna kill you game :) thanks for everything though
