I didn’t believe him, I had that gutty feeling he had something he was hiding. I went to a social worker, and I got him to setup an appointment with a clinical psychologist at the local hospital. It occurred that the psychologist had asked him if he was sad, lonely, depressed, and feels worthless. Tony answered to all questions. The psychologist diagnosed him with suicidal thoughts.
