tell her parents, or just try talking and inspire her. Or show her how much she means to you!

you have to let you know that you're there for her. tell her that whenever she feels really low and like, feels like she wants to do it again, tell her to call you or talk to you online or something...that way you can talk her through it...
she just needs someone to talk to about whatever's bothering her. if you let her know that you're always there for her and that you care about her and that it scares you and whatever.

Call up a hotline and have her talk to them, and tell an adult. Make sure she knows your there for her & that she can talk to you. Maybe the best thing to do is tell her parents, or if they know already then have her get counciling.

I know how that feels, I hope things get better xox. :

Peachgirly answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 7:32 pm:
You should talk to her about it and maybe find out what is causing her to commit suicide and ask her questions like why do you want to commit suicide? and etc. tell her not only she is gonna hurt and kill herself but have her think about everyone around her that loves her. everyone like you will be upset and hurt if she is gone and things won't be the same. also if you can't get through to her try to get her help as soon as possible. even tell a trusted adult,teacher, counselor,her parents,someone you trust or whatever. itz better to have her get pissed off at you then having her life end. Here is the number for the National suicide prevention lifeline 800-273-TALK. also always be there to support her. I wish you the best of luck. ♥ Peachgirly

charmed3fanatic answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 5:33 pm:
hunny you need to let her know that you are here for her and you don't want your relationship to ever end.. let her know how much she means to you and that you don't want to loose her.. tell her that instead of cutting she should go to you to spill her guts out to. i also think she needs to go to rehab. but that is not my decision tell her that she needs help and that you are willing to stick by her side until she gets it and when she gets it... but i am tell you this now cutting if that is what you are refering to is a mental disorder. something must have happened big that she feels guilty about and the only way she can hide away from her dark secrets and make the pain go away is when she cuts herself.. hope this helps... let me know if you need anything... ANYTHING!

Boo fuckin hoo shes not the only one whos lifes a piece of shit

Shes a pussie, a whiner, a complainer, a loser, an idiot, a moron, a fag, a failure, and most of all someone wanting attention. Dont be her friend. Shes retarded.

I sure hope she is getting some kind of help.
There really isn't much you can do about being afraid. Wish I could say there was. I can't blame you, she could try it since she has done so twice already. She has some major problems somewhere and there isn't anything you can do about them.All you can do is stay friends and be there for her to talk to. Maybe over time if she doesn't try it again you will not be afraid anymore. :)

LostAngel answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 2:39 pm:
Talk to her, convince her that she needs help like is said below.. I was in this sorta situation before as well just my friend was cutting not trying to comit sucide. Talk to her...tell her much she means to you and that she will kill a lot of people emotionally and possiably physically as well if she does kill herself. List manyt reasons why she is such a great friends and all the great things that can happen in her life if she got help.

-Need anyhing else feel free to drop one in-

You really need to talk to her, and convince her to get proffessional help. You can't help her, but others that are trained to might be able to.

If you can't convince her, and really are concerned your next option would be to tell another trusted adult to make her get help. =( Good luck.

Michele answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 2:09 pm:
Is she willing to talk to anyone? I mean a stranger but a professional? Did you ever hear of covenant house? They take in runaways. For keeps. They help all kids, from all over, for any reason. Especially if they are suicidal. they have a hot line. free phone call 24 hours a day. call 1-800-999-9999. I hope your friend is willing to call them and just talk. They will let her know that she is not the only one who feels this way. there are a lot of kids like her and for good reason. What are you parent's thinking for God's sake. If nothing else, please tell her this. suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem

OrionsFire answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 1:33 pm:
Have you asked HER if she is thinking suicidal thoughts or has she displayed any suicidal tendencies? If she has, then I suggest talking to a school counselor or her parents, though if she has already tried to commit suicide twice, I am guessing her parents know the risk she is already at.

Courtney answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 1:24 pm:
You really should talk to a professional and try to get her problem seriously fixed . She won't understand now, but when she's been helped, she'll love you for it all . So talk to someone who won't screw up the first time . Talk to someone who you can trust .

Chriss88 answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 12:47 pm:
Honestly I have a friend exactly like yours. And I told her parents and then went to the local help center and asked them to meet with her. I swear its hard to go behind a friends back and do that but really would you rather have her mad at you for a little bit or not have her here at all?

Daisy answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 11:24 am:
If she finds it difficult to talk to you face to face about her problems then perhaps by writing her a letter could let her know how you feel. Just by telling her that you have no idea what she must be going through at the moment but that you feel lucky she has chosen you to be her friend and that you are going to be there for her any time of day or night in case she needs you. Tell her you understand that it might be difficult for her to tell you and let you know whats going on inside her head but just by letting her know where you are and that you support her 100% and are not going to judge her at all will mean something to her.
