I'm Worried
My friend, she's really cool.
She's really funny.
But I'm worried about her.
You see when it comes to her home life, she just
shuts off. She'll never talk about anything
personal. And she always wears this jumper, even
when it's stinking hot!!
When we were changing for PE one time, I saw her
take of her jumper and I saw lots of scars on her
wrists and arms.
I know she saw me looking, and it's really
awkward between us now.
I want to say something to her.
But i don't know what.
I don't want to say something like "If you want
to talk, I'm here" because the school councilor
has said that to her like a billion times, and sh
really hates it!
Anything?

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
At times like this, you just have to stand up and let her know that you want to know what's at least going on and why she has those scars. It's definitely tough to ask but you both are good friends and should be able to trust each other no matter what the situation is. And don't worry, even if the school counselor says, "if you want to talk, I'm here," he's just counselor and maybe the reason why your friend hates it is probably because she's telling her thoughts to someone she hardly knows. But if it's you, I'm sure she'll confess and let you know what's going on because you're someone she truly knows and the fact that you're a friend to her.
It's good that you're worried about her, that shows that you really care for her, so if you think it's a serious problem that she's gotten into you should let an adult know if your friend has been abused...or if she's just hurting herself. Don't be afraid, because even if she doesn't want to discuss the first time...she'll eventually tell you because she knows that you're the only person who's worried.
I hope this helped you a little! Good luck! =3

Hey, my name is Faith42 !!
I think you really should talk to adult about this because this is a bad situation. She could be hurting herself, or worse someone else can be hurting her. Also, stay being a caring friend like you are now. She knows that your here for her and if she really needs to talk ! I bet she would talk to you first than anyone else. I know I had the same situation with my friend, I didn't know what to say either. For , the awkward situation I think you should do your best to act like you did, before you seen her scars.Keep being friends and I hope everything goes alright!!!!
I hope I helped!!!!

If she is hurting herself, Then it's time to talk to her parents or someone who cares about her. If she is being abused, Then it's time to talk to an adult who will listen. Sounds like the school conselor isn't doing much to help the situation if it's so bad she has to cover herself up then obviously something needs to be done.
