A suicidal young Chinese man posted updates on an online forum about how he planned to kill himself after breaking up with his girlfriend before he was persuaded to stop just in time, Sina Weibo reports.





Hundreds of online users of the chat forum wrote to the man, 23, identified by his surname, Zhang, to try to stop him taking his own life on Sunday, the Dahe Daily reported.

They became alarmed after he stood outside the home of his former girlfriend in Shangqiu, in Henan province, and posted a photograph showing blood pouring from his slashed wrist.

Two people working as administrators of the online forum eventually persuaded Zhang to talk to them on the phone and he agreed to stop going ahead with his plans.

They later went to his former girlfriend’s home and then took him to hospital for treatment to his wounds, the newspaper reported on Monday.

Zhang later told the newspaper that he had been acting on impulse and would not do such a stupid thing again.

He also expressed his gratitude for the comments posted by people on the forum, saying: “I feel much better now… we don’t know each other, but you cared about me.”

Later the posts on the forum were all deleted.
