Lesson Overview

1.67 – What If They Get Mad at You for Telling?: It’s normal to worry your friend might get upset when you tell someone about their suicidal thoughts. They might feel betrayed at first, but what they often realize later is that you acted out of care. Anger is a natural reaction when someone feels exposed or scared. Give them space, but remind them gently that you acted to keep them safe. Over time, trust can be rebuilt when they understand your true intention. Saving a life matters more than staying comfortable in the moment. You can say, “I’d rather you be alive and mad at me than not here at all.” That truth can stick with them even when they’re hurting. Sometimes being a good friend means choosing safety over approval. It takes courage to be that kind of friend, and it’s one of the greatest acts of love.
