My youngest nephew and his girlfriend live with my mom and I,and they used to fight all the time,well,yesterday was the first time they were fighting in a long time,my nephew's girlfriend,she was crying all day,my nephew was even going to go and stay at a hotel until she was gone,she threatened to leave yesterday,I think there is something seriously wrong with his girlfriend,and I think she is sufferering from deppression,and I know that if she leaves then my nephew will go off the deep end sort to speak,because he will say that he's going to kill himself,because of what he has,he thinks he can't live without her.

May I suggest talking with her and seeing how she is.
Depression has many symptons, sadness, inability to do anything, lack of selworth etc.
So if she is depressed she needs to see a doctor.

As for you nephew, take a practical approach. Ask where is he going as you need to know where to send the undertakers to collect his body, ask has he insurance for a funeral, what sort of funeral does he want, has he written a will etc.

Yes its morbid but you are also showing practical care as well as driving home the idea that suicide is final, messy and affect other people.

Sometimes that is all you can do apart from pray.
