As it turns out....Charlie's Parents have talked him into admitting himself for psychiatric care. They said that this episode has scared them to death and they want to ensure that their son get's all of the necessary care he needs so it doesn't happen again. He's gonna be threre for a little while...He's 25, so his parents couldn't make him do it...but after listening to them, he's come to the conclusion that things need to change for him and that getting professional help is really his best way to get on that road. He will be able to have visitors on Wednesdays. So it's out of my hands now...His parent's have been talking to me, and they said that he told them of the fight. Jean said that I have been her son's best friend for almost his entire life, that as far as she's concerned I am just as much family to him as she and Dan are...one fight doesn't change that..and I shouldn't blame myself at all....she says he has had some trouble for a little while now. But hearing that makes me even more guilty...What kind of friggin friend was I that I didn't notice? I love this guy like he was my own brother...and I didn't even have a clue he was in trouble. So regardless of whether or not the fight had any impact on his decision...I still am partly guilty for not seeing that he was falling. I asked to talk to Charlie...but Jean said that he doesn't wanna see anyone..especially me. I guess she said he's feeling ashamed for treating me like he did and picking a fight with me. He says he can't face me right now, but that he would maybe be ok with me going there tomorrow. So I guess I'm not gong anywhere afterall...It's out of my hands now. Part of me is glad that he's where he is now...at least he'll get the help he needs, whether he decides to listen to them is up to him though. It's all up to him now. I just hope he's strong enough to come back. I wanna thank everyone who gave me support and kind words. I really appreciated them. And Ghost....Thanks for the tip about the Tea...worked like a charm to calm me down. Thanks man. Thanks to all of you.

Nice to know you won't be leaving for ages, hope everything goes ok for you and him both, don't blame yourself for this, seeing others pain and what they're feeling inside is easier said than done, atleast the situation has took a step in the right direction, stay positive.
Good to hear hes getting professional help. Things can only get better from this point on. Oh, and welcome back TomTaz

DrFatality: I hope this helps him to...nothing would please me more than to have my friend back the way he used to be....but things probably won't ever be the same for him...

FLSTYLE: Thanks. I know it's hard to tell, cause some people can put on a good front...but still no one was closer to him than me...I should have seen SOMETHING.

IcedOutLinKueiWarrior: LOL Thanks man...but technically, I guess I didn't really go anywhere. Hopefully he finds the answers he needs.

Thank you...I'm happy to be here. Though I wish I had been allowed to see Charlie...We'll see what's what tomorrow though, unless he changes his mind and wants to wait longer to see me. I hope not!

I did not know this Tom!!!!! sad

Well, I’m happy things are getting better now. I hope nothing goes wrong. My advise (even though it really does not matter) is not to pressure him, nor to make him speak or make him go to a psychologist if he does not want to yet. Give him time and leave him alone.

Its best, it gets too annoying and shameful when people try to help too much. Strange but true.
