Urgent help needed!

[champbronc2]

Okay, one of my friends who I have known since I was 4 who lives across the street almost killed himself today. About 30 minutes ago actually.

The problem is he has a bad relationship with his parents. His parents have this perfect image that he cannot follow. He goes to a private school in which he one friend. The rest of the kids do not like him. The school is so small though that he does not have a chance to get friends. Then to make friends people trick him into getting bad grades and goofing off in class.

He is depressed because nothing seems to go good for him. He isn't too athletic even though he used to play so many sports. He also is depressed because his grades are bad and that he really has no one to go to except us (his friends around my neighborhood)

We want to get him to tell his parents to go to a public school where he would make numerous friends but he says his parents would not care.

I thought me and my friends' parents should go up and get this through his parents' head.

Any more ideas?

I'm worried he won't make it through the night. But the best chance is to leave him be as his parents would drive him to suicide for sure.

We just went and talked to him 20 minute ago.

Good for you for being concerned... he needs more help than you can give him, though. Get some adults. Ones you trust.

I think he islooking for a more immediate solution to keeping his friend alive tonight and what to do in the long run.

Do not leave his side. If he shows the signs again, call the 5-0.

Yeah..
and RedBirdy80 I very much appreciate it!

But it is hard to do those things because I am always out and about and we don't go to the same school.

But for the most part, it is more of making sure he doesn't kill himself.

I think someone definitely needs to talk with his parents and in as nice as way as possible, let them know the kind of pressure they are putting on him, and exactly what it is doing to him. They need to LISTEN to him.
