My boyfriend of almost a year is bipolar. And these past few dats he's been really depressed. Yesterday he told me he almost killed himself and just a few minuets ago he told me he was hearing things...... I DONT know what to do. I'm scared. I don't want to loose him or him to hurt himself. I love him so much....... What can I do?? He lives with his parents. I don't have their phone number so I can't call them. I don't know what to do. I'm really anxious and scared for him. I'm tempted to call an ambulance. I have his address. I just don't now what to do. HELP??

I see you didn't get any replies yet since I'm on and its 2am I would like to check in with you and how this situation is going. This definitely needs attention and though it is hard it may require the crisis line, or call 911. Please let me know how you both are doing. Is he on medication for the bp? Please respond asap!

Under Crisis Center there is a post by acuriousfish titled Before Posting Here, this has the necessary information for various emergencies and such as well as hot line numbers and websites that deal with crisis matters. Do you know someone else that he is friends with? Are you with him?

You can call your local Police department and tell them he's suicidal and they can go check it out....and if he's as bad as you say, they can hold him on a 72 hour evaluation hold. Not sure you can call an ambulance and send it to someone else's house.

Can you drive over and check on him , he may need someone to be with him for comfort also .

((Hugs)) I would also get the parents phone # so you can get in touch with them if needed for present and future ..

He hasn't messaged me today yet and I'm really worried. He usually sleeps in. But since how he was acting last night I'm scared. I can't drive to his house because I don't have a license. I really hope he's okay..... I'm so stressed and anxious

His parents must have a home phone do a white pages look up on the computer , or do a reverse look up by hous address . Also you can use the whitepages . com to get a Nabors number next door, its a little strange but if you word it well they may have his parents number .

I understand you suffer from anxiety and I would be stressed in this situation but be creative , its the high teck age .
