How do I help a friend to help a friend who wants commit suicide?
My friend has this friend who she was dating, but they broke up a few weeks ago-- maybe a month. Now he wants to commit suicide. I'm not friends with him, but do you have any advice for my friend to help him get over this? *I don't really know if he's going to do it, but he has the though. Oh, and my friend told a teacher at my school. So an adult does know.
some people have that reaction when they break up, others just say those words to get attention and bring the person back into their life. The catch is that no one ever knows if they are serious or not, and the other catch is that if they really want to do that there's no way you can stop them.There is a law though that says if you know someone who truly wants to commit suicide then you must report them to the police. However if they aren't serious then everyone has egg on their face and the poor guy gets baker acted and gets the honor of having a psychiatrist look at him and spend lots of times in a nutty place. So do you want to inflict that kind of think upon a person who is merely getting over a relationship and is just overacting? I would think"no"...so the only way is to mind your own business and tell your friend to mind their own business.
Tell his parents, tell another teacher, tell the principal.A person who seriously wants to commit suicide is too much for an untrained teen to take on, and if he does what he says he will you are unprepared to assume that amount of guilt.
Have your friend to call or go see his parents about what he is threatening to do !even though to me , this sounds like his way of getting her to feel sorry for him so she will get back with him , she shouldn't take any chances !!!by his parents being aware of what he is saying they can keep a close eye on him .it might also be a good idea to talk to the school counsler about this , so they can intervene .tell her to take no chances !!! Don't give into him by going back with him , because if she does he will use that as a way to get his way all of the time . But at the same time , take no chances !!!!!my best friend commited suicide at the age of 14 and to this day i still ask myself if there was some thing i should have done .if i would have just told some one , she might still be here .good luck !
Well if he's gonna commit suicide, then let him do it and be greatful that it's not your life. If he doesn't want the joy of living then let him go to heaven or hell. It's his choice so let him be. But the real advice that I'll tell you is to tell him that he is going to waste his life and not have the joy of living. In heaven or hell, he'll feel just the same cause feelings don't go away in heaven and hell they just worsen. When you're alive, feelings only last a while then they go away and he'll move on and if he kills himself, then there's no turning back once he's dead.
Tell your friend to not take any chances with this guy. Also beware, there is a thin line between someone willing to commit suicide and homicide. if he does not stop threatening to do this, call the authorities and have him checked out.
As backwards as this may sound to you and anyone who reads this. I am an advocate for suicide. This being said I now have no choice but to defend my ideals.#1 If someone is going to kill themselves, someday they will.#2 I cannot save the world, I can only save myself.#3 I believe there is no Hell or Heaven, only a reset button.#4 I am not emotionally linked to humans barely myself.#5 As far as I know. I only die once.These are just a few to draw lines through. I know this could touch off some heated debate of harse judgements. I look at my own life as nothing special and ignorant to think otherwise. I am going to die someday no matter what I do. In the frame of our very short time here anyways you can infact do whatever you want to, it's really not going to matter either way. We'll all be pushing daisies out of our nose holes in short order. I have gotten over loving and crying and caring about all of this visible 3D world. I welcome the day that I get to see the world through my new eyes. So if anyone wants to get there before I do and I try and stop them, that's like being greedy.
