I'm scared for my friends life.?!
Question: I'm scared for my friends life!.!?
My friend cut herself and is diagonosed as depressed!. She used to be a different religion(i don't want to say too much an account of the fact she might see) and never told her family, she suddenly went back to being christian and I think it has something to do with her family!. She has a boyfriend who her parents forbid her to see so she sneaks out to see him!. She quit all school clubs and sports because her parents "made" her, but I think she's lieing!. Her boyfriend attempted suicide four months ago, he ODed and even wrote a note!. He's fine now and better, I guess!. After she opened all this up to me I got scared and I don't know how to act around her!.
P!.S: Please don't tell me to act the same because it's way to hard!. I don't know if I should tlak about it or let it go and I don't want to do anything to mess up the friendship!. Please help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
This isn't something that you should try to handle on your own!.
Tell your parents or school counselor!.
It sounds like her parents should be approached by an adult that has the credibility to make them listen!.
You will be risking the friendship, but I would trust your gut on this - if you think she's at risk of suicide, better to have her alive and mad at you than dead because you didn't try!.

I would talk about other things and if she brings it up just say "Lets not talk about it" or something like that or u could say something comforting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
