You are a king, if your family is stressing you out(because this time, he was with his family and all his family was around him) just tell them to chill, you can do what you want to do, do not stress yourself, if you kil.l yourself now, what do you want people to say.

I was so concerned so I called him to try to give him rest of mind, if your family is stressing you out, leave.”
