friend cuts burns drinks smokes what else is there
Ive became real close friends with this girl again we were like two years ago. She cuts, burns, smokes and drinks. I used to cut and burn and still drink. i was addicted to smoke but not me smoking I cant stand it seventeen of my relatives have died from the things that come from smoking I cant stand it. Long story but cutting is her sanctuary it’s a habit since shes been in 5th grade. Ive been talking to her a lot about it. Shes been in rehab and hospitalized few times. She cuts during school and everybody knows. When I used to I never told or showed anyone but my best friend which spread then I got nick names :(. She will die without cutting she needs it, she stopped burning, she drinks with an adult, she smokes less. The feeling has been so strong lately but she doesn’t wana go back in rehab that made her go crazy. As much as I am against cutting and smoking, I want her to stop smoking and I don’t wana hurt her by keeping her from cutting. Shes in seventh grade for a few more weeks ina catholic school and im graduating eigth grade in two days. She needs to stop smoking, and tone down the cutting even more. Shes depressed and her parents constantly yell at her. I talk to her so much about everything but I don’t know what else to do. Her parents know everybody knows but nobody really cares. She got my friend to bring his pocket knife to school so she can use that instead of glass or blades she said or else shed cut really deep. I got pissed at him and even more at her. What do I do? whats next her getting nocked up in 7th grade, cutting burning drinking smoking. :(

Please, go read my columns, there is much in there that applies and have her read it too. I'm not going to give you a sunshine and lollipop and how great life is speech here, but have her talk to me personally after she reads my column, there is too much here and I want to go to the source. Do it, don't do it, die happy, die sad, no skin off my nose.

wow. soo you have some major issues with your friend. well i cant say ive been in her state but my sister has, and what i did to help her was be around her a lot and try to make everything fun and exciting. with her, shes not seeing the whole yay life good feelingss. shes only seeing the whole boo you whore my life sucks life. and thats healthy. of course rehab isnt helping. its only making her worse, they're just gasing up her head with ideas that shes insane and what not, you kind of have to make her feel like shes normal. but not the normal were what she does it okay. the whole drinking and smoking thing well, shes young to do that but thats always just a phase, and cutting. believe me she'll realize soon enough that cutting isnt gonna save her from anything. cutting is addictive but my sister got over it, and so will she. the way you describe her reminds me of my sister so much. you might not think things will change but they will. it could get worse before it gets better. but it will get better. just stay by her side at all times "not to the point were your annoying her" but to were she understands that your there for her! so she knows shes not alone. it wont be easy, its gonna be hard. but its life and inorder to get through it you have to fight for it. remember stay strong =]
