What do you do

When he says that he wants to kill himself?
Last night i was texting my sort of boyfriend and he told me that he wanted to kill himself. I know he was dead serious about it. It scared the hell out of me when he said it. I was basically begging him not to do it. He thinks that by killing himself it will stop me from being in pain, and i know it wont. We arent actually together, but I love him so much. I dont know what i would do without him. He is the best thing that has happened in my life in a very long time.

Im basically asking what would you do to try and stop your bf/gf from killing themselves? and what you think i should do. I cant go and see him as i live in Queensland and he lives in Victoria. In his last message he said he wont, that he wants to see me first. now im sort of hoping that i dont see him for a long time, if that is what it is thats going to take to keep him alive.

Please help me, I really really need some help with this.

He thought i was in pain because i told him that i was crying because of what he said. he thought that if he died then i wouldnt be in anymore pain over him, which is stupid because i would always be in pain over loosing him.

Would I do to stop my prtner from commiting suicide?

…I’d do nothing.

I know that may sound shocking and cruel, but people need to be responsible for their own actions. My now ex-boyfriend (who I still live with and spend time with) talks of suicide. He has attemped suicide and maybe he will again.

People who are suicidal (in my opinion) need to take on responsibility to appreciate what they are capable of and to see that they do furfil a role within society and the community in which they live. I believe this shows a person their worth and encourages them to channel their time and thoughts into possitive behavours and thinking, though this may take some time and they wont wake up ‘cured’ or be happy all of the time.

Trying to stop a person from commiting suicide doesn’t solve a thing.

My advice is be tough and show your boyfriend you have a life with all its many ups and downs too. Let your boyfriend know he can talk to you and you will be there, but any acion (posstive or negative) he chooses to take is solely his responsibility. Show your boyfriend your struggles and how you cope with them in posstive ways and offer advice when possible.

Bob is wisdom.

I do agree with Bob and i agree that people should be responsible for thier own actions but i would be devastated if Marcus ever said that and would do everything in my power to show thats he loved so much and he has tons to live for.

Well at least u stopped him....THIS TIME! but i think u should talk to his parents or sumone that can talk to him in person!!!
