Please Help!!! I just learned one of my friends tried to commit suicide...twice.

Today I learned that one of my friends has tried to commit suicide twice over the past month and....well, my computer is spazzing out so I need to make this short before it deletes everything. Long story short, does anyone have any advice on how to help her??? I know to pray but I've never had this happen before and I just don't know what to do!

Even if she says she is okay, don't just say "ok see you later". When we say we are okay, we are saying "I don't want you to judge me or tell anyone so I'm not gonna tell you". If you always let her know she can trust you then she will tell you. It will give her a way to let out her anger in a healthy way and giver her someone to trust.

Let her know that you love her so much and so do so many other people, that so many lives would be impacted if she was gone. Pray for her! I'll be praying <3

Comment by Leorah on October 6, 2012 at 9:04am: I wish I could give you some great piece of advice but, I can't. I am so sorry this is happening to you! You do not deserve to be under this kind of stress. At all. My aunt who committed suicide three years ago put my family under that stress of wondering whether or not she would still be alive in the morning for two years before she actually did it. And it is the worse thing a person can go through.

I think the only thing you can do right now is be there for her. Show her she really is more important to life than she thinks she is right now. And you yourself know that I WILL be praying for you as well as your friend. Okay? God bless...<3
