Thanks. I took the afternoon off and visited with a friend. I also talked with a counselor for a bit. Ultimately, I know the first step is to ask him. I've gone through suicide prevention training for teens. I just don't know quite how to handle this because you cannot force an adult to go to a counselor or talk to anyone.
he really doesn't socialize with anyone. He doesn't have any friends except some that we hang out with together. But they are really more my friends. He would never personally talk to them. He really deosnt have family except a brother whom he has not had a good relationship with. Him supposedly buying drugs for his brother is most likely an excuse but also that doesn't mean they have much of a relationship. However, I may end up visiting with his brother if I feel this goes beyond me talking to him about it. They have a history of mental illness in their family and his brother will understand that.
