Fuck

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.

Fuck.

...

Fuck.

(Nothing to do with me personally, don't worry. Just a friend/acquaintance has gone all suicidal and I just don't have the emotional wherewithal to talk to or with him as he needs. And Geoff is out of town. And... and if I call the police, or whoever on him, he WILL hate me forever and possibly take it out on us.

Fuck.

I gave him the number for a counseling center, but I doubt he's going to call. He's pretty determined to fuck his life up at the moment. He says his life is over.

Fuck.

Any idea what I should do?)

It's a hard one to call. On the one hand, you can't actually stop someone from doing something that they want to do, but if he's depressed then he's not going to be in the right frame of mind to take the sensible decisions. You really wouldn't want his death on your conscience, but neither can you stop him. It's a job for professionals.

If you're fairly certain that he's not a danger to himself tonight, then you've got time to persuade him to try counselling. DO you have the Samaritans over there?
