He does have family in the city, but I hope they were able to contact them and let them know what's going on. So I hope somebody is there with him.
 
Hey there Hanzo
Amongst all this how are you coping yourself buddy ? as i said in a previous post
you more than likely saved your friends life .
If you need to chat about your feelings on all that has happened then please
dont hesitate to post if you need some support buddy . (*8*)
 
Really proud of you Hanzo. You did the right thing, and are being an amazing friend.

I would say just keep looking for regular updates, and when you can, go out and visit. Just to make sure that he's ok, well, as ok as he can be atm.
 
A really great thing u did...I do hope ur friend recovers but also hopefully his encouraged enough to know theres so much to life & ending it wont help :)
 
Wow!! You are seriously THE MAN! Everyone would be so lucky to have a friend like you. I know SO many people (as I'm sure we all do), who would have just fluffed off what he said and felt like it wasn't their business to interfere, but seriously, his comments to you were a cry for help.

If he REALLY wanted to die he would not have said anything to anyone. After he recovers he may be angry at first, but I doubt it.

Hopefully his family will rally around him and be really supportive and happy as he is coming around and he'll realize that he really is loved and will see what a foolish thing it would have been.

At any rate, another human being reached out to you for help and you gave it. I wish I could shake your hand right now. People like you make me proud to be human. Thanks!

If you ever need a definition of hero just look in a mirror.
 
It is awesome to have a friend, even if online, that cares enough to do what you did. As someone else said, regardless of the outcome, you made a difference and gave him a fighting chance when he couldn't do so himself. As others have said, you are a true hero.

Be sure to take care of yourself, too. Talking to a close friend about what happened is crucial to healing yourself if you think you have post traumatic stress.

Thanks so much man (*8*). I'm actually fine now. It was extremely hard for me to call the police and actually say those words to them. I was terrified that they were gonna call me back and say that he didn't make it so I'm just relieved. I just couldn't believe that my friend got to this place.

I truly believe that we are taken care of whether in this life or the next and that my friend will be fine either way. I just hope if he pulls through that he can have a new perspective on life and see that it's so worth living it out.

Thanks and I'll give the hospital a call tomorrow. They can't give any details because I'm not family but I they can at least tell me if he's there or not. I will have to let them know that I'm the one who called the police in the first place and they might let me know something.

Thanks my friend. He and I got really close and talked almost everyday either online or on the phone for the past year so it was the least I could do for him. I really hope that he does not resent me for calling, but I believe we all choose when we go, and I believe he decided to stay and not go to the light, so to speak.
 
Dudes, suicidal intent is a medical emergency. IF someone has a plan...pills and intends to use them and tells you so...this is the same thing as if they tell you my chest pain is really heavy and I can't breathe too well...Best to keep the subject engaged and reflect for them, that is make open ended statements..."so, it sounds like you're concerned about money," say. While they are responding, THIS is the time to call 911. Getting the police to come is a stressor on the relationship, perhaps, but it could save someone's life. If someone is just sharing a general concept of depression, loss, etc., get them to commit/contract to you as a friend to seek help, and follow up with them. Hanzo did well by his friend. We all need to be aware of the seriousness of a suicidal crisis.
 
Great news ya'll! My friend is out of the hospital and is recovering now. He was well enough to email me today and I was so relieved! Now I just hope he has enough will to keep living.
 
Great news!

Just a thought. I bet many on JUB would love to hear from him and support him. There are a lot of us that have either thought about ending it or actually attempted it. Maybe we can share our experiences to help him through whatever caused him to loose hope.
 
I just wanted to add my thanks and congratulations, Hanzo - you did a great thing. :)

Also, I would encourage your friend to ask for help here on JUB in the future whe he's feeling down. There are lots of good people here who are willing to lend a friendly ear. I would also strongly encourage him to seek professional help, if he isn't getting it already.

Congratulations once again - you are a great guy. :)
