He going on a hike at a national park and I think he's planning on jumping off a cliff. He's already driving there. I need some advice because I'm not sure how to stop him without actually being there. I can tell he's been depressed for awhile but as you can tell it's gotten worse.
EDIT: He says he won't do it and he just needs time but I'm afraid he's saying that so I don't call the cops
Edit: he's good now

Sadly all you can really do is keep someone talking. Once they choose to stop talking, the only way to prevent tragedy is to intervene. Perhaps you aren't able to intercept them, but the authorities may be able to. Past that, the decision rests squarely on the shoulders of the individual with what they plan to do with their life. I sincerely hope this works out without loss of life.
