My friend
My friend is having a family crisis and her life is falling apart. I've tried comforting her, since I know how it feels. I feel so helpless, though, as if I could do more to help her. Should I call to make sure she's alrite or just give her space? I'm so worried about her. What should I do to help? Thanks in advance.

Definitely keep in touch with her and call to make sure she's okay every now and then -- if she needs space, she'll tell you. Right now, I think she probably appreciates what a great friend you're being.
If she does tell you she needs some alone time, though, try not to let it offend you or bother you. We've all been in situations where we just want some space. =]

if her life is faling a part i think you being by her side would maybe help her and make her realize you are there for her to catch her if shes about to fall no matter wat. Id call her to make sure shes alright but no like every 5 min. in an annoying way. Be there for her but dont go too far.
hope that helped!

I would give your friend some space. Tell her if she needs to talk, you're there for her. If she needs somewhere to stay, your door is always open, and if she can't sleep, you'll be there on the other line with her until she can fall asleep no matter what hour it is in the morning. Just let her know that you're there if she needs you, and leave it at that. If she wants help, she'll come to you. Until then, there's nothing you can do. This is a personal dillema that only she can do something about, but she doesn't have to face it alone.

tell her to ask some sychatrist to help her or let her smoothen out and wait but still be there for her when she needs you most.
