My Roommate Scares Me. I Think My Roommate is Suicidal
My roommate is kind of weird. I moved in with her in the beginning of December to prepare for this upcoming semester of college. We live near campus. She's been going to this college for 2 semesters already so she knows all about the school. That isn't the point.
She's really quiet and keeps to herself. She always, always eats alone. We never even watch TV together. I hardly ever see her really. I don't know if she has any friends, but I know if she does they never come over. I try to get her to go out and have lunch with me sometimes but she ALWAYS turns me down and says she's busy (usually reading some book, writing some paper, or doing some "research" about something or another). She always DOES seem busy because every time I've been in her room she has stacks of papers and books and it just looks like she is doing a lot of stuff. Anyway, she always seems kind of sad or depressed too though. And it scares me that maybe she's suicidal or severely depressed or something.
What should I do about this?

Your roommate isn't necessarily suicidal. Chances are she's just the sort of person who likes to be left alone and focus on her studies.
Keep in mind that just because you're roommates doesn't mean that you have to be besties. She may just have a heavy course load and be too busy to cultivate a new friendship. Either that, or she just feels that you're too different to be good friends. Also, some people like to keep their roommate relationships professional rather than friendly.

The fact that she always eats alone and turns down invites to go to lunch could mean she has an eating disorder. idk. maybe that will make sense?
