 hi i am a 16 year old female, and i maybe able to help you on this, first of all ive been in so many mental hospitals, and placements because i was the same way i tryed to kill myself all the time.....
now about your friend, heres some questions you should wonder about..
1. is he having problems with his family?
2. is he doing this for people to focous on him?
3. is he dating anyone or got hurt by anyone?
this are import. questions to figure out, if he is having problems with his family or friends this will lead to depression.
if hes the type that has to be the center of atti. then he will be like this. and if he got hurt in a relationship... but it sounds to me by experince that he is lookin for someone to focous on him and no one else....
all those threats are nothing if he was going to do it he would of all ready tryed.
the best thing you could do is call a counsliour around there or if your still in school and go to the guidance counslior and be like i have a friend and the problem wit him, and they can give you advace.....
you may feel like a bad friend for going and tellin somone with more exprince with people like that but in the long run you will feel much better.....
dont wait intil its to late, go a.s.A.p befor it gets any worse.....well good luck and i hope you tell someone
