My brother is 18.
He tried to commit suicide twice the past two months. I am 14 years old, and the only ones to know about it are his girlfriend and myself.
He doesn’t go out.
Not even to school.
He doesn’t talk to anyone but me and his girlfriend.
I am not supposed to know this,
but his girlfriend and I are very close friends end she had to tell about it to someone.
Our parents a divorced and I live with my father in a foreign country while my brother lives with my mother in our mother country.
He tried to cut his veins twice in front of his girlfriend and now she can’t live this anymore. Since that, she tried to kill herself too.
She wants to break up but we both know that if she does, he’s done. I begged her to stay with him, but I don’t want her to die either; she is one of my best friends.
I don’t know what to do anymore…
I can’t tell this to my parents because it is mostly because of them if he tried to kill himself, and I know they would worsen the situation if the knew about it. What can I do? We are seperated by 6,000 miles!
I can’t even sleep at night because of that.
Please, help me.

Oh wow that seems so terrible. How about when you have summer vaction you go vist him. Comfront him how you feel and how this is doing to you and his girlfriend. Tell him although this is too painful for you can you at least try to be strong. At least when school ends he can live with you so he is not alone. Even if he has to leave everything try to make it through school cause look at you. You are my brother and i know you are stronger than this. Once you graduate you are free.Please dont let this get to you. Even if you have to cry to him tell him how this is making you and his girlfriend. Try to help him every way you can even if you have to make changes. If you want him alive do whatever you can with him. Try a therpist or something. Do everything you need to to keep your brother alive. sorry if this is too long c; /).(\*hides*
No, don’t be sorry, I am happy to see any kind of reply.
Thank you so much for trying…
I am happy to see that at east a person read this.
Unfortunately, the situation is more complicated than this. I can’t go to live with him for some reasons and he will never accept to return to live will my father. I will see him this summer and hope to be able to keep him alive. I’m really scared he gives up before I arrive…
How can I make sure he doesn’t?
try really hard for him to stay strong. Try talking to him everyday or at least everyday. Till you can vist him. At least you know he is still living. Or write to him. School shouldn’t be that far to end. Try everything you can to keep him alive. Or bring back memories. Once you visted him try to make him smile. Do stuff that you used to do c:. /).(\
Good idea.
I just hope he won’t get I figured it out.
However, I still have a problem: the jet lag. He’s usually not on line when I am. I have to wake up really early in order to catch him.
damn o -o write to him then ^- ^ or try online O: that works too o -o
Definitely send him some sort of message. U don’t have to tell him u know what he’s going through; just let him know u can’t wait to see him. That’ll give him at least a sliver of a reason to hang in a few more weeks. Just knowing that there’s someone out there who is wanting to see him can give him the strength to push on a bit longer.
Good luck!
Thank you for your advices 🙂
I think I’ll try that.
I mean, that’s the only thing I can do anyway…
Hope it’s gonna work.
Thank you all,
I’ll keep you informed.
