    Arrow My friend is threatening to kill himself...what can I do??

    I'm on the east coast, he's on the west. I can't call the authorities can I?

    I did think about the fact that he may be just being dramatic but what if he isn't? God forbid he did it- I'm the only person he told. He's hasn't been going to work, not eating, crying alot and tonight he told me a very personal secret he hasn't told anyone about something that happened in his childhood.....I'm getting scared.

    He says he will write a letter to his parents, go driving in his car until gas runs out and then use his friend's gun on himself.

    I want to call his mother but I don't have her number and now he won't let me have it.

    call the cops in that area and tell them your friend has been very depressed lately and tonight is threatening suicide. they will at least send a cop over to check on him.

    ^^Yep, call the cops. He'll probably be pissed off at you for a while, but pissed is better than dead.

    ^ right. And if they get there and find he is distraught and possibly a threat to himself they may take him in the the hospital for mandatory 72 hour hold where he can be evaluated and maybe get some counseling or treatment for his problems.

    You can call your police departemnt and asked them who to call there. My ex in another state was saying he was going to kill himself and then he wouldn't answer his phone. The cops were sent over pretty quickly.

    We did this once with a woman we knew only from the Internet when she was suicidal. Luckily, she had given my partner her phone number at one point. The police were a bit confused when my partner told them that we had never met this woman in person, but they did send someone over, and it was just what was needed.
