my friend was abused and still suffereing 8 years later
my best friend was abused by drugs and got on them and so much more by the time she was 6. her dad died. her mom went to jail. her aunt took her and her sister so they wouldnt get put up. but their not legally adopted. she refuses to use her aunts last name. her real mom keeps calling and leaving messages or coming over. i thought she had a restaining order or sumthing. but everytime, my friends aunt is screamin at her and her sister and makes them leave they cannot see or hear or even a picture of their mom. but her mom left in a message that she also gave them all aids and that they have 3 brothers they never met. so she cant see her brothers she doesnt even know who or were they are. she fights nonstop with her mom. she is bipolar and im afraid shes gona hurt herself. shes either extremely happy or extremely mad. her life is hell and always is crying but then at times she acts like nothing is wrong. she was abused by drugs from birth to 6 and got hooked. shes now 14 and her sisters 16. they both have many things wrong with them and diseses and AIDS. im tore up about this but i am still her best friend and always have been since she came to my school and next year were going to different highschools. think, her carrying drugs and smoking she started carrying them at 4 till 6 and faught with her aunt for very long time. when she took them away. i just need to know how to help her. shes still to young for any of this.

I agree with LolaMarie. I wanted to add that maybe you should suggest that she see a psychologist or therapist on a regular basis if she doesn't already. There is probably a psychologist at your school who can help. Actually, you might want to ask to see the psychologist because s/he can probably give you good advice on how to help your friend. Also, I wanted to once again emphasize that your friend and her sister need to be tested for HIV/AIDS A.S.A.P. if they have not already been tested.
Just try to be there for her. Listen to her. Try to cheer her up when she's down.
That's a lot for you to go through to have a friend in her situation. Don't forget about yourself. You need to make sure you're okay, too. You can't help her that much if you're falling apart.
