Yesterday I (18M) got a text from my friend’s number saying that my friend had killed himself. I thought it was a joke because he tends to lie and then laugh about it. I texted back and forth with what I thought was his brother then I believed he really did kill himeself. I was obviously upset, I even had a nightmare about it. I told my family the next day because he’s my only friend and I needed support or whatever. Then today after texting with what again I thought was his brother, his brother asked to call me to go over certain details. I picked up the call and my friend was there and laughed then said “Did you really think I killed my self?” Then I proceeded to tell him to go f himself and hung up and blocked him. He’s my only and best friend and we’ve been friends for 6 years, that’s why hesitate to cut him off. I’d like to get some outside opinions, thank you.
