Help. Emergency.

Please click on the thread below and read post #10. It was posted almost two hours ago by a DU member who might be suicidal. I have no expertise on how to help. Please reach out if you can.

And please kick this so that others, who may be able to help, can see.

I don't know how you get that started, but if anyone does, could you please help? I can pitch in some.

but hasn't posted since the 10th, and I can't DM him. Is anybody connected with him there? I did reply to a message that was a picture of his dog. Hope he'll see it and follow it back here.
