Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Okay so this a throwaway account because this is not a fun thing to talk about. 
So a little back story, I have this friend that I've known for about 5 years. And in all the time I've known them, they have been extremely depressed and suicidal. They have made several attempts to end it and I have been the one to talk to them down about 3 times. I care deeply for them and would never want them to hurt themselves. But lately the stress from it all has gotten to be too much. I have depression myself and sometimes suffer from suicidal thoughts. I've never attempted but I have thought about it. This friend knows I also suffer from depression and comes to me often because they know I would understand the things they are feeling better than most. Anyway this brings us to the incident I mentioned in the title. Last night they called me telling me that they couldn't go on any longer and they were gonna finally end it. I tried to talk to them for about an hour to hopefully distract them or something. But after awhile my anxiety was getting to be too much for me to handle and I had to tell them that they needed to seek professional help and that I couldn't do this anymore. They obviously were upset and got very angry at me. They told me that because I was abandoning them that they were gonna do it right now. As soon as they said that, I immediately hung up and called the police. Told them what was happening and where the friend was. Thankfully the police and EMTs arrived in time and were able to save the friend. They have been in the hospital since then and will probably be there for awhile. I'm not allowed to see them, as they don't allow visitors at this hospital. I can't help but feel I'm to blame for this. They trusted me and I couldn't help them. Am I the asshole for abandoning them in their time of need and calling the police?
