A friend of mine has suffered a devastating and sudden breakup. He also has a difficult family background (abuse), and - heartbreakingly - he has indicated that he is thinking about killing himself.
He's been taken to the doctor and advised not to be alone, and he's following that advice. But I want to support him. Is there anything I can say that might help? Or anything I shouldn't say? We're in touch by text mainly at the moment.
I know sadly a lot of people here have been there, and would really appreciate advice.
