I need advice I just found out my boyfriend cuts himself and wants to commit sui!


Question: I need advice I just found out my boyfriend cuts himself and wants to commit suicide. Please help?
I found this out Friday night and have been looking a lot of things up since then. He told me he's been cutting himself since middle school and I believe the reason he's being pushed to suicide again is because he has nothing to do to occupy his time. His parents one of the many reasons for his depression took away all the things he does to deal with his stress: video games. And my parents know nothing about him and are very strict so I cant go to his house and keep him busy and not thinking about it. I know he needs treatment but I dont know anyway to get him there he might push away and I dont want to push him further to depression or closer to death. I really want some advice and please dont give me any of that criticism bullshit or dumb comments I am seriously stressed and worried myself I dont have time for crap.

You need to take him to a counselor no matter what. If your both still in school, drag his *** up to the school counselor. He needs to see someone that will know what to do. Even if you call the depression line (whatever that may be where ever you are) and ask for advice on the situation.

The sooner you do it, the better.



Finding out that someone you care about is harming themself and has thoughts of ending their life is a very difficult thing. It is great that you are reaching out for help! Suicide is something that is very serious and it is important that you get help for him right away. Is there a trusted adult such as a parent, pastor, or guidance counselor that you could talk to? It sounds like he really needs some assistance in getting help and by letting someone know you can help him with that. It is hard when you feel like he will be upset with you for letting someone know, but that is the only way to get him the professional help that he needs! Make sure that you are getting support for yourself as well in dealing with all of the emotions that come along with such a difficult situation!

Go to Google and search for a therapist in the UK closest to your location (or wherever else you live). You should get an address. If you can't visit, phone them. Tell them about your friend and say you don't know what to do. They'll offer you advice.

You can also make an appointment with the gp for yourself and ask them about nearest therapy services.

The most important thing you could do yourself is be there for him. Try to find a way to visit him, get him out of the house and do happy things, activities you know he likes, other than video games. Like playing football or something. I know a girl doesn't always like to do it, but you can try for him, right? Call him and let him know you're there for him whenever he needs you.
