ah get her help. tell someone. i know you can't do it alone. no one can. the next thing you should do is try to understand where shes coming from and just be there for her to talk to. it the best thing for you to do. she just needs someone to be there for her and make sure she knows that when she feels like cutting she should just call you. i hope she gets ok!

some ppl use rubberbands... on their rist instead of cutting... well when they feel they need to cut they pull on the rubberband. im almost positive its alot better then cutting. x3 xogiggles37xo.

you should get her help and be there for her as much as you can so she might not feel so alone and other then that all i might suggest is that you tell her parents about this she might not thank you now but she might later

awww that is terrible. u just need 2 tell her that it isn't worth and look up clinics or support groups for teen in ur area that she can go 2 and mayb u could somehow get her 2 go and even tho u don't cut mayb u could go wit her just for the support and tell her u r there 2 talk 2 about ne problems and if she needs nething that u would b there for her. *STEPHANIE*

You did a great job, as devastating as finding that out about a friend would be, you did good. You could possibly now find a person who used to cut for her to talk to, or a counselor, or just be there for her. Tell her to tell her parents. Maybe they would get along better if they knew what they were doing to their daughter.

xForeverxForgottenx answered Tuesday August 17 2004, 3:39 pm:
im almost an expert in this area for a few reasons. ok well tell her how much you would miss her if she killed herself and how worried you are about her. when my friend told me she would kill herself i told her that if she went then i would do the same thing right after i found out she did. you have to keep telling her that cutting isnt the answer. it seems like a good sulution now because you forget about whats wrong and just concentrate on the pain. but it doesnt make your problems go away. tell your friend that she can go to you whenever she needs to talk. just be there for her. thats all i can really say. hope i helped. if you still need help then drop one in my inbox. good luck.

Keep talking to her about it.Tell her how if she ever DID die that she'd be missed so much and then she'd make the people that loved her feel the same way she felt when she killed herself.And I bet she wouldn't want that. Communicate with her though..thats the biggest thing.My friend used to cut too.She has improved so much.She doesn't even do it anymore and shes not all depressed and stuff.Well I hope I helped.GOOD LUCK! (Tell me how things work out)
