I had to send my Best friend to the mental hospital.

More power to you, I had to do the same with my mother, a bipolar schizophrenic. Had to write a huge e-mail, and eventually, after about a year of dealing with her in her state like that, we got her help and now she has a job, her own apartment, and amongst other things. You did a good thing, and you're lucky you got help so fast. Good job.
Update, I sent the messages he sent me to his sister, She said she was surprised, All kinds of stuff was said, she thanked me and stuff. She said they were getting him help. That i did the right thing.
Now he's going to fake becoming rehabilitated and once he's released he's going to go after you and kill you.
oh yeah? Well

He's got a point. Get a gun if you don't already own one. Also don't think of it as "I had my best friend arrested/institutionalized" think of it as "I just saved at least three lives" because that's what you really did.
He got out of the hospital today. And all my emotions were on high, I went outside to check the mail for a bit. He and his mom pulled up and i just stood there, sort of afraid, kinda lost on what to say, But i had written him a note. I went in and got it and came back out, gave it to him, We had a short talk and he thanked me, I did what i had to do, To make sure he was okay, He gave me a hug and he had to go talk to his family. I felt so much better after all of it. I showed him the note he gave me, And i just stood there silently. I feel better knowing that he's okay. He's a very levelheaded person.

Since when did level headed people have fantasies about murder and suicide?

Possibly, All it takes for someone to go from a good person to utter lunacy is one bad day.
I'm glad it all turned out ok, you definitely did the right thing, you cant be too careful.

Well, introduce him to facepunch, everybody is a weirdo/creep in here anyways.
Never think you did the wrong thing. You may be helping someone by betraying them but you're still helping, and that's all that counts.
I believe he'll eventually begin to see what you did for him and he'll be thankful.

[QUOTE=TheDestroyerOfall;32904282]If you really want to know why i sleep with a knife, When i was in 6th grade (7-8 years ago) Kids would push me off my chair and start kicking me, when i was asleep. It's obvious you're heartless enough to be an asshole in this situation, Whilst you probably aren't older than i, Or lived in worse conditions. It's so i sleep better at night, I have flashbacks into things like that I have PSTD and other disorders. I have partial brain damage from being kicked and beaten up when i was younger, To the point of where i can't remember anything before 6th grade. I do not respect you. You are not a respectable person.
But I must digress, Arguing on the internet holds no bounds, In the former nor the past.[/QUOTE]
I... kind of see why the picked on you.
[QUOTE=Jawalt;32949130]I... kind of see why the picked on you.[/QUOTE]
You try going through the terror of that. Get beaten up every day, Just because you wear a different style of clothes, Because you have an accent, If you went through the same thing that i did, I assure you you wouldn't be disrespectful like that, Hell you might not even be alive.

Don't even start.
He's gonna thank you in a few months. OP is a good man.
[QUOTE=TheDestroyerOfall;32904055]I'm afraid that may be the case but we've always been an equal match fighting. Sort of like goku/vegeta.
I also always carry some type of weapon or something. [B]I even sleep with a knife in my hand.[/B] But We've always been even fighting to the point of where we matched each others strength. He's partly the one who taught me how to fight, But i also know a lot of thai kickboxing. In short i'll most likely be able to stop him. In all likelyhood, it's not even that simple. If he does come to kill me, it'll be in the night.[/QUOTE]
What if you roll over?
Wow, this is the first time I CANNOT think of anything witty to say, so, I guess, Good job, you did what I would do.
He's back to him old self. Good old sky. I'm happy this worked out. He's having a great family life now too.
Excellent news
Never regret having to make the decision that you did.
It was a tough one to make, and in the end it worked out for the better for all involved.
You've helped him through a rough spot, and in the end that's what being a best friend is all about.
truth is i helped myself too when i did that. it showed me i still care and i'm not as heartless as when my ex tore my heart out, It's the end of the road for the old me, i think.
You helped him.
Enough with the bullshit overly supportive posts. Yes, we fucking get it by this point, resume talking like normal people now.

What's up your arse?
What is wrong with people being supportive?
?!?!?
People being supportive of people who have uncertainty about a difficult decision is pretty normal too.
OP is a hero. just so u kno'
So... Any news on your friend?
Yeah, I agree. any update?
Never had that mind set, but if I did, and a friend was listening...I'd hope they'd do what you did, and I think I would've too.
I don't ever wanna be one of those people who didn't take some suicide threat or something like that not seriously and suffer the consequences for not doing anything.
You did the right thing.. hang out with people, try to do something new.. You took this off your chest, now you'll need friends help to take it off your mind.
Take care.
