I just read a suicide note on my boyfriends facebook page?
I mean what should I do? I was looking around his profile to see if he had uploaded some pictures of us that he said he had tagged me in. That is when I came across his about me section and it said "lost hope" I click on that and there was a long description with a suicide note on it saying he loves me and that he is sorry but he has a suicide date and everything. Attached to the bottom of that was a picture of him where you can see his arms with tons of scars and scratches that I had never seen before.
I had seen this "lost hope" post on his profile for a while I just never bothered to click on it until today I did by accident. I knew he was bipolar I just never knew he was this suicidal or that he had plans to end his life. I could never live without him in my life. He means the world to me. I have no clue how to help him cause I asked to help him once before when I noticed he was depressed and he told me to drop it cause he was fine but now I know he is not. We are both bisexual by the way. What should I do? Ads |

*Raises right eyebrow* So...What was the date? Cause you know instead of getting help, like an actual person would do. Or going to your bipolar friend and talking to him, you hop onto Yahoo Answers. If you didn't notice I gave you advice, go to your friend or get him help.

That's tough, if you really care about him you're gonna have to be responsible about this and make sure his patents know. :/

Get in touch with him a.s.a.p. Do not mention him that you have noticed his uploaded photos. Just invite him to somewhere to spend a little time together. He will tell about himself if you dedicate your time on him. Take it seriously anyway. Maybe a family matter or something... Be very patient.

So, he's cutting and there is a suicide note with a date on it? Go tell someone such as a parent or school guidance counselor or a psychologist. You CAN'T help him. You aren't in a position to help him and you don't have the knowledge to help him. If he is depressed and unwilling to get help himself, you HAVE to get someone else involved, now. Yes, he may not like you after you do but at least he'll be alive. Would you rather have him be alive and angry or dead? So, get up off your butt and tell someone who can actually help him before it is too late. If you don't, you may regret it for the rest of your life.

Don't take this lightly. You need to talk to a parent or guardian or guidance counselor to get help with how to handle this situation.

A suicidal person may not ask for help, but that doesn't mean that help isn't wanted. Most people who commit suicide don't want to die—they just want to stop hurting. Suicide prevention starts with recognizing the warning signs and taking them seriously. If you think a friend or family member is considering suicide, you might be afraid to bring up the subject. But talking openly about suicidal thoughts and feelings can save a life.
If you're thinking about committing suicide, please read If You're Feeling Suicidal or call 1-800-273-TALK now! To find a suicide helpline outside the U.S., visit Befrienders Worldwide. The World Health Organization estimates that approximately 1 million people die each year from suicide. What drives so many individuals to take their own lives? To those not in the grips of suicidal depression and despair, it's difficult to understand what drives so many individuals to take their own lives. But a suicidal person is in so much pain that he or she can see no other option. Suicide is a desperate attempt to escape suffering that has become unbearable. Blinded by feelings of self-loathing, hopelessness, and isolation, a suicidal person can't see any way of finding relief except through death. But despite their desire for the pain to stop, most suicidal people are deeply conflicted about ending their own lives. They wish there was an alternative to committing suicide, but they just can't see one. Suicide Warning Signs Talking about suicide Any talk about suicide, dying, or self-harm, such as "I wish I hadn't been born," "If I see you again...," and "I'd be better off dead." Seeking out lethal means Seeking access to guns, pills, knives, or other objects that could be used in a suicide attempt. Preoccupation with death Unusual focus on death, dying, or violence. Writing poems or stories about death. No hope for the future Feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and being trapped ("There's no way out"). Belief that things will never get better or change. Self-loathing, self-hatred Feelings of worthlessness, guilt, shame, and self-hatred. Feeling like a burden ("Everyone would be better off without me"). Getting affairs in order Making out a will. Giving away prized possessions. Making arrangements for family members. Saying goodbye Unusual or unexpected visits or calls to family and friends. Saying goodbye to people as if they won't be seen again. Withdrawing from others Withdrawing from friends and family. Increasing social isolation. Desire to be left alone. Self-destructive behavior Increased alcohol or drug use, reckless driving, unsafe sex. Taking unnecessary risks as if they have a "death wish." Sudden sense of calm A sudden sense of calm and happiness after being extremely depressed can mean that the person has made a decision to commit suicide. |
