My friend is thinking about suicide and I want to talk to him about it but everyone says I shouldn't. Help please?

Talk to him. Ignoring the fact someone is thinking of taking their life is not only stupid but dangerous as well. Your friend may appreciate being able to talk to you, and may make him feel as though there are other options. If you really are concerned, and talking to him does not help you may need to get in touch with someone that can. I suggest a school counsellor or an adult that is close to the friend that you know will give him the help he needs.

Talk to him. If you dont and he goes through with it you will never forgive yourself for not at least trying. If you talk to him and cant change his mind at least you will know that you did your best and let him know that he had one real friend.

I'v have to agree. If you don't talk - you never know what might happen.

I wish you the best of luck!

He's thirteen years old. I don't think anyone can stop him.

He says violence is good. He wants to kill people to see blood. He says it's spiritual. This whole thing started about a week ago. Today he told some people he wanted to kill himself. I don't think he can be stopped.

I don't want to lose him.

Also people have told me that he wanted to do it in school but I doubt it. I hope this is just some sick, cruel joke.

Tyler, I think you need to speak to someone about this. Even if it is just a cruel or sick joke, there might be some reason behind it. If you need to talk feel free to pm me whenever you need.

Me and one of my other friends were going to talk to the guidance counselor but we didn't. I haven't seen my friend that much today. I don't know if I should think or speak. I want time to myself but also with someone I can trust. This has made me so confused. I can't think straight. It's hard trying to cover your emotions around your family. I do need to talk to someone. But for now I want to just think.

Don't take this the wrong way but you should probably seek professional help asap, it sort of sounds like he might actually be suffering from a mental illness - Do you know if he's had any mental health problems in the past? Is he on meds or anything like that?

I just read that and it sounds ridiculous, I know, but seriously I think he might be mind sick.

[Wonder.]

He doesn't take medications and no mental health problems in the past. He has always been a little violent though. I can't talk to my parents about it. My dad is gone and would be no help and my mom would just say something like "He's not going to kill himself. If he does then he was pretty stupid."

My sister I don't really get along with.

My friends don't want to talk about it.

My guidance counselors won't care. (I'm serious. If it's not murder then the staff don't give a fuck.)

I thought about talking to a teacher but I only have one teacher that might be of some help but I'm not really comfortable around.

So that's why I came here. Some people here have attempted suicide and others knew someone who did.

VT is my family, friends, helpers, and therapists.

Back to the point, I feel like he actually will. He's one of those people who just seem like they would do it.

One of my other friends convinced him to not kill himself. But he still wants to kill this one girl. He left school during first hour. I truely am scared. I have no way of contacting him and my friends aren't taking this as seriously as they should be. Or maybe I'm overreacting.
