my friend wants to kill herself....
I just met this girl in pottery and she is really cool.( we are both Freshman) We were just talking and she said she used to cut herself and do drugs but not anymore.She said in the summer of 2009 (when we graduate) her and her friends from a different school are going to burn down there old school and then stand across from each other and shoot themselves because they all want to die at the same time.I dont know if I should tell anybody.She sounds really serious about it and I dont kno what I should do.I dont think I can tell a consouler because they will confront her and she will know it was me because i was the only person she told.Ill rate high

it doesnt matter if shes kidding around or not, any person who is serious OR is kidding has some serious issues, you gotta tell someone like now
good luck and you have my best wishes

mmm, any suicide threat should definatley be taken seriously. even if people are just joking, and i even know it, i always say, "you ARE joking right?".
you should definately tell someone. you can talk to a counsellor without mentioning any names and just ask them for advice. or ask a counsellor who doesnt know her.
you have a lot of options, just write all your options down and think about what would happen if you did each one. then work from that which is that best descision.
goodluck.

She is probably just looking for attention.
If you -really- think she is serious about this, yes, obviously you should notify someone.

You have 4 years from this point to try and change her mind. Maybe you being her friend and trying to get her mind off of it will help and in the end, she won't do it. But at the end of those 4 years you don't think she has changed and she still might do it. Then you need to tell someone and get a warning out to everyone. Just go to a trusted adult and get the news out because her possibly doing that stuff is VERY serious.
Hope this helps and things get worked out.

she could be serious just ask her about it. You have until graduation to decide. You should try to work it out with her and if that doesnt work DEFINETLY get her counsling.

chances that she will have the time to burn the school down AND have time to shoot her friends or whatever before a cop gets there are pretty slim-- but i can see why you are worried and you should just tell her how you feel, and if she still doesnt listen you SHOULD tell an adult or counselor or whatever cause it sounds like she needs to talk to somebody to sort this all out-- even if she gets mad at you for telling, its better then her dying before she has her first job or gets married or whatever she wants to do with her life-- she shouldnt just throw it away!
it sounds like she needs to get advice more than you do!!
i hope i helped!!

2009? That's fine then, you've got 4 years to help her start loving her life. I'd be interested to know why she stopped cutting and doing drugs, because if she seems to hate her life enough to want to die in 2009 then I wouldn't expect her to do that.
It also seems strange to wait to graduate before trying to burn down the school, and commit suicide, but I suppose stranger delusions have come true.
If you're around her in 4 years time, and you haven't managed to change her mind, then you can always try to throw up a distraction, and make sure she can't get there to do it.
You've got 4 years to think of ways to stop her from doing it, so really, I don't think you should worry too much. "Worry", as in be worried about it, but don't get too frantic until a little later.
The one thing I would try to do, is find out why she would do it. The key to stopping her from doing something you don't think she should do, is to help her see that the reason she would be doing it is stupid, or misinformed.
Anyway, get to know her.

Anytime someone talks of suicide it should be taken seriously. While I realize you don't want her to be mad at you it isn't something you can handle alone. Here is some reading for you to do.
I hope it helps you out. :)
