I TRY to keep up, but if your answers wind up in my TRASH folder, or if it has been several days since the OP and replies. I may have problems trying to make sense with them. > > Thanks > > Q Sorry I just now saw this Bill. Checking the board on my phone means my emails get delivered all screwy and I can’t really keep up. :mad: Anyway, don’t worry about Jaceson and me. We’re hanging in there. I’m just glad to know that all’s well for your friend right now (and that D is doing good too!) and that everything in general is moving along nicely. You take care of both of you and I promise to update (or vent) in the next couple of days. I’ll be thinking about all you guys. ---

**Kemi** : One of my (and I include ALL you guys!) sweetest friends. I sometimes don’t mention it, but sometimes I do have tears when y’all answer or support me. The fact that I care about this friend and want to reach out and save him, and your responses just mean a lot to me. Tonight I sent him a link to a website about playing blues guitar, and I hope it helps him. Lord have mercy, don’t let anything bad happen to this friend of mine. Sorry! I don’t pray a lot, but sometimes, when things are out of your control, where ya’ gonna go? Even if it _isn’t_ really a PRAYER as such, it can still be _wish_, right, Y’all? Quasi ---

Quasi, I know your heart is in the right place. Just continue to be a good friend and understand that is all you can do. When I was at my lowest point of depression, the last thing I wanted to do was to talk to someone so I understand his temporary disconnection from contacting anyone. Be persistent without being annoying and know you’re doing all that can be done. You’re a good friend, Quasi. ---

We’re good. He’s back in the VA. Now other shit is rearing its ugly head. Sometimes I think, “Why ITF does this keep happening to us?” Then I say to myself, “STFU, Bill!” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-friend-of-mine-wants-to-blow-his-brains-out/603055.md?page=1)
