It's great that you care so much about your friend, and I experienced your situation first hand. It's really really awful. While I was suffering from awful depression and bereavement, I had a friend that was very suicidal and kept on hurting herself. During that time, there were two very big mistakes that I made. One was that I didn't acknowledge that I was severely depressed and couldn't deal with my loved one's death, and the other one was that I didn't take her seriously, and I believed she only wanted my attention, because she was really smothering me. Thankfully, you're not making those huge mistakes, and I'm proud of you. But you are young and aren't trained to deal with suicidal people. Do your friend the biggest favor you can do him, and tell a responible adult immediately. This will save his life! He might really hate you for a while, but ultimately one day he'll thank you for not letting him commit suicide. The professionals trained in dealing with suicidal people will help your friend overcome this awful challenge. Depending on the exact situation, it might be better to urge your friend to tell an adult or you will have to, or it might be better not to clue him in, since he might kill himself before anyone can do anything. You know the situation, so you'll make the decision. But no matter how you do it, you need to tell a responsible adult who will know how to handle the situation. I also strongly urge you to get help for your own depression, and start enjoying life again. I wish both you and your friend the most incredible lives you can have, because you deserve it. Let your friend know how much you care about him, and that is the only reason you told someone. Good luck and love life!
