I second that.

Imagine the reverse end, if the friend DID commit suicide and created a breadcrumb trail for it, yet you did nothing about it, just consider that for a second.

The only thing is OP should have told someone before it got to this point. Though it may seem you're breaching their trust, if someone confides to you that they've been having suicidal thoughts then you should notify someone who can help. It's the result of mental illness that may only get worse and therefore needs to be treated.

OP just found out it sounds like. Either way informing authorities might make the friend mad but at least he will get offered the help he needs.

That friend will never tell OP anything in confidence again. He might not even reach out to anyone ever. This wasn't a smart move.

I know how you feel

FML devs please let us undo votes, or at least put the buttons side-by-side and not one on top of the other so it's harder to miss! Also try and make it so that the accounts that always put YDI can't vote

agreed.

And me! I dish out free coconuts!

But coconuts are gross...

I always understand. We like it better than the alternative.
