Yup. I've known my best friend (who lives in the States) for just over 15 years. In that time period, I've not known ONE thing to go right for him without it turning on him within a month and going more sideways than it ever went right. He is the walking definition of "If it weren't for bad luck..."
For the last 10 years, I've been doing everything I can to keep him from suiciding.
I almost lost that fight over Christmas as he had lost everything that even mattered a bit to him, and he'd given up.
Last I heard, he'd checked himself into a 24/7 mental health residency type program before his phone expired.
I hope that he finds the help he needs.
