What can I do to help a friend who is 400+ miles away that is having a mental/emotional breakdown? We've been very close friends for several years but we currently live 400+ miles away and he has had a lot going on in his life recently, and in the past, and is having a really hard time dealing....
He called me tonight... He's not a drinker, but he was really drunk, and crying... Which is something else that is rare for him, no matter how bad things are..
He's tried to commit suicide before.. A few times... And I'm scared to death that he'll try again.
I'd like advice on how I can help him even though we're so far apart... What can I do for him? I can't lose him and just knowing that he's in pain has me bawling my eyes out.
Any advice that you could give, I would be very grateful for.
