how do i truly know??


Question Posted Tuesday March 15 2005, 11:20 pm

Ok so here is the deal i know that i am supposed to be a good freind and all my friends say i am a good freind. But latley my friend who is a 14/male has been trying to act well cool he is drinking and i dunno if that is such a ood idea seeing as he is trying to get me to do it i know that i used to be an alcholic but i have stopped because my other friend who is a 14. female told me to so i did. But that is not the real deal. My friend has also begun to overdose and talk about suicide i have talked to people about it yet when i try to talk to him i am to afraid to tell him to stop i know i need to and i know i just would rather have him be mad at me yet he knows me o to well and will put up a fight.

Do i dare try to talk to him because he is violant or should i leave that to a parental unit???

thnx
Monn

YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING! Would you rater see your friend in a coffin or in an instuite mad at you for caring about him!! Tell the counselor. This is serious!! Try to tell him that you care about him and that you dont like to see him like that. It is better to regret what you did than to regret what you didnt do. You could help him save his life!! If you are realli his friend do what is best for him and get him help. Hope my advice was helpfukl ThAnKs!!

Don't talk to him about it.He isn't gonna listen anyway.tell an adult. He needs help BAD. If you don't tell someone he might commit suicide one day and you will feel guilty the rest of your life.I don't think you want to have to live with that. Get an adult to listen to you.Today!

How do i truly Know,

Suicide. Imagine how you would feel if this friend commited sucide and you knew you could have prevented it. Even though this doesnt seem right you should go to a guidance consueluer and say so and so has been talking of suicide ..
then swear her to secrecy so no one will have to knoe you did it
if that could save your friends life then i think its worth it

I think you should try to talk to him but if that doesnt work tell a parent and have them talk to him.

i think that you should talk to him! you are one of his good friends so he will probly listen to you. Tell him that you used to be in he same situation but you knew it was wrong, so you stopped doing all that. Tell him that you can help him get through it and it will be ok. Hope i helped. lemme know how tings go.

Dear howdoItrulyknow,
You ARE a good friend. That much is obvious. Is he a good friend to you? Apparently not. He is pressuring you to drink after you have already made a commitment to yourself to stop drinking. You also say he is violent. Now this worries me as much as the drinking does. With that combination, DRINKING + VIOLENCE, it = DISASTER. Tell an adult about this as soon as possible. Your friend is heading down the wrong path quickly and he is trying to take you with him. You are very courageous to be asking for advice on this situation. So take that courage to an adult.
Good luck!
Linda
