There isn't much you can do,
I would just be there for your friend,
Talk to him, let him know that he's loved,
And that he has a reason to be here.

Sorry for the late response, but you need to either call the police and have him taken to the hospital, and/or tell his folks or yours.

I'm not sure what's difficult in figuring this out for yourself, but your role here isn't to play Jesus and try to heal him, it's to recognize the seriousness of his situation, and get him to the people with the training and qualifications to do that.

Regardless of what you 'think' you can do, or what he wants or will accept, a good friend does what's right, even if it means the end of the friendship. Better that a friendship ends than a life.

Tell someone.

That was the last post you made so I pray that he is ok. Here's the best advice I could ever give.

LET HIM KNOW HES WELCOME!

by this I mean tell him that he doesnt know what happens on the other side. And once its done he cant change his mind. Making him feel comfortable. In the end his decision is the one that counts. And even if you dont like it its his choice. Let him follow it. But most of all. try to remember the good times. I know you dont want to let your friend go. But if that's how he truly feels, then you can't stop it.

I hope you give us the news soon.

Well you have to realize that he is under a lot of pressure. He has really been through a lot in his life. From death and through many other things.

You have to come to the fact that there really isn't much that you can do. In the end, its sad to say but its his decision as to whether or not he gets therapy for his problems or if he decides to change his life around. But you cannot make him do something that you want to do. Life would be so much easier if we all can do that.

Yes so if you really want to help, since you do not want to take our advice is to get some help for him if you can. If you have tried everything from talking to him, to making him see that its not right for him to do this, then let him go. Its really all that you can do. It his decision to go along with this. If he wants help for his condition than he can get it. Its his choice for him not to. Just stay close to him if you still feel uncomfortable about it.

I hope that your friend is still hanging on. I can't imagine the pain he must be feeling with all of this on his plate.

One of my friends was in a similar position (11 of her friends & family and one of her partners passed away in just under a year) and what we all did was rally up around her. We made sure she knew that she could always talk with us about it, that we cared about her and showed her that she could still have a laugh.
So my advice would be to do the same with your friend. Arrange some days out with him and a bunch of friends (cinema, bowling that sort of thing) and tell him that you are all there for him. Show him that he can trust in you all to be there for him.
