"Why do you hate capitalism, Zahrah?" IDK. I just can't contain all of my commie compulsions! It's a problem. EDIT: Seriously considering phonebanking after talking to a bud since I'm home now.

If he has no immediate family, your circle of friends should probably intervention his ***. The most important part here being: Close your eyes. It's a year in the future, this dude has killed himself, and all you did was send stupid text messages. are you going to be cool with that?

PM'd you, though I got a weird occurrence so it may not have taken. Let me know. Bottom line, don't ignore it. Refer him somewhere or, if it persists and he doesn't contact anyone, do it yourself if you must. That way, at worst everyone is a little embarrassed.

By carrying those fractions into the burgeoning bank accounts of Middle Eastern and a select few American businessmen.

volkom said: » afternoon ni~ decided to sleep in today. started the preload of dark souls 3 >:D anywho on a more serious note. I have a question about suicide prevention. A friend of mine has been talking about it for the past few weeks and its gotten to the point where I'm not sure if they're just seeking attention or if its a real thing. Basically they were/are in a bad one sided relationship and every few days I go through different messages about finding the closets shooting range to jumping off bridges. When we do discuss it more, they've been/are going to be heavily drinking that day/night. So right now me and close friends in that circle have been trying to send positive messages and stuff daily. I just don't know what else to do. Any suggestions? Don't fall into the trap of offering advice, unless they ask for it. That is not your goal here. The goal is for them to realize they are not alone.

But if I paid to the next rounded cent and demanded change?
Who really does that? I'm sure there is an old guy somewhere that does though.

You never know when you'll get a voice message that someone plastered the breakfast nook with brain matter.

I thoroughly enjoy me some suicide humor, but I think I'm in the minority on that one.
Another thought, Bob:
Once in awhile just drop them a quick line to show you're thinking of them. "Oh I saw this badass King Meshi action figure with kung-fu grip action and thought you'd enjoy it." "Hey I saw that movie you were talking about. Ryan Reynolds strikes again." You know, just random stuff to bring a smile to their face. It's amazing how much a small moment of happiness can change an entire day, and for every day that is brightened, your mood and outlook change with it.

If someone is clinically depressed and thinking about giving up the ghost, I don't think pleasantries are going to amount to ***. sorry, I'll stfu now.

There's high chance they'll treat you bad and push you away.
You need patience and fortitude too when dealing with someone in that condition.

Anna Ruthven said: » If someone's joking or seeking attention using suicide, they deserve to have to sit through an intervention and all that comes with it. It's one of those situations where "I was just joking" doesn't work. It's better to do it face-to-face. You can read the intent.

This got real dark real quick.
[+]
get your friend hooked on a fun never ending anime, that way, he will always want to see the new episode. and not kick the bucket before.
jokes asides, if he keeps talking about it, surely means he doesn't want to really do it (but could do it) and just wants to be pulled away from that idea. not really sure what i am saying but am intervention or calling the suicide squad number (thats what is called? suicide squad? no wait, suicide prevention line! yeh thats the one) and ask em for proper help.

[+]
Siren.Mosin said: » lol, what are those from? It's actually a riot if you're a little cynical and like your humor leaning to bleak realities that skulk around the corner. The cast and creators are in our age group. Probably a more truthful exploration of relationships romantic or platonic.
