Answers:
wow - I think your friend is lucky to have you!. You're not superman, and there is only so much you can do -remember the cliche "she has to ant to be helped"!. I guess just do what friends do - talk!. Try and get to the root of the problem, why is she doing these things - for attention from her mother, out of anger at her mum, as a was to gain a feeling of control in her life, which by the sounds of things have been a bit stirred up!?!? What is it that is troubling her!? And if the deep and meaningful talk doesn't work- just hang out or talk about something to completely get her mind off herself - go to a movie, talk on the phone, plan a trip, whatever it is she is into!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi, you have done so well by your friend and she seems to respect your opinion, maybe you could try talking her into seeing her Gp!. From there her doctor can refer her to see a councilor, who is specifically trained in this area and can give her all the help she needs!. Wish every one had as such supportive friends as you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Continue to be a good friend!. Follow through with your plan!. But please remmber you can only do what you can do!. Don't ever put yourself down for not trying hard enough!. God be with you!. and if God is in your life!.!.!. Pray often!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you are good to help you're friend but you are meddling!. she does sound like she lashing out a bit but if she wanted to she could see a real therapist on her own!. i think telling the teacher will give her unwanted attention!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
