addictionss..
okay this is like somethingg i really need advice on and the more the better..
story:
okay so my grandmas neighbors who my whole family is really close with and have been my whole life. okay well the sonn has been getting in alot of trouble recentaly. for DWI, overdosing on pills and the whole nine. well today when i was over my grandma's the police brought him home bc he has aniexty pills and had taken an entire bottle in one day adn left the house to go to a friends house, and his mom called the cops to find him and stuff. bc they were worryed bc he has been threating sucide and everything. like today when he got home his mom was telling him that hes gonna die if he keeps doing this and he goes death is what im hoping for he alway had taken 120 pills in a matter of 5 dayss. its badd.
now a little background on the kid
he was adoptedd. bc his parents didnt think they'd be able to have kids. but a few years later they did they had 2 girls. his dads a police officer so he was rarely ever home. and being that the 2 girls were her actual kids his mom paid a little more attention to her daughters then to him. but he never new he was adopted adn to this day im not 100% sure if he nos for sure. bc his parents never told him. when he was younger he had a hell of alot going for him he was a crazy good runner he could of went to any college he wanted, but he ended up getting mixed in with some bad ppl andd all that went down the drain. his mom also is having an affair. nobodyyy really noes about it but my grandma and like my family. but i think he might have found out about it. but idk
now what i need advice on..
okay soo i think all he really needs is someone to talk to bc one when you wanna comit sucide you dont keep saying your gonna do it you just do it. and his whole life hes never really had some there to talk to. like he just doesnt need someone theree saying DONT DO IT DONT DO IT. he just needs someone to sit there and listen to what he has to say, not a physcitrist or anything like that. like a real normal kid. and like honestly i would and i want to bc thats what he needs but the issue is hes 22. im 15. butt mature for my age the problem is im never aroudn him just me and him its always with his family and mine. and like id never have opprountiy to. so does any one have any idea on how i can go about thiss.
thankk you soo much in advance and for readingg all thiss.

Maybe give some free advice about: Mental health?
Actually he needs a counselor/therapist/psychiatrist. You're taking too much on. Your friend needs so much more guidance than you or I could give. Please just be patient and hope he seeks/gets the help he needs. I'm sorry I couldn't offer you the magical advice that would allow you to help him. Believe me, I know the rewarding feeling that comes from helping someone, and you care about him. If anything, do what you can to promote the idea of him obtaining professional help.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but he needs therapy.
Not by a friend, but by a professional.
I know you want to help him, and it is a wonderful thing, but the best help you can give him is to convince him to go to therapy.
What are you going to feel like if you try to council him yourself and he ends up committing suicide? You will feel guilty, at fault. That is too much to be putting on your 15 year old shoulders, no matter how mature you are.
You can't risk damaging yourself to try to save someone else. It is a very noble idea, but not wise at all.

You have to tell an adult in your family to become a friend to him,tell him that his life is precious,to tell him that he/she cares for him,there are others there who he can count on,that suiciding himself is not the key in solving all his problems,that he should live for his family,to see his future,be with a partner,that killing yourself is a selfish act because you're not thinking about others but in yourself,and that there are many great things waiting for him but, he doesn't see it because he's in a lot of pain right now.
