What can i do to help her?!


Question: What can i do to help her!?
my friend has major issues, she has problems at home, with her dad, porblems at work at her school and she lost her granpa just a week ago, she keeps saying that she's holding up well but everytime i call her out of the blue she's crying
she used to self harm before and im scared she will get back to doing that, i am just scared she will end up breaking down and i hate seeing her being in that position but talking to her doesn't help
does anyone have any solutions!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
well, you can't force her to see a doctor
maybe talking to her doesn't help because she's afraid she'll weigh you down with her troubles, talking about her abuse isn't something easy and you have to understand what she's going through
tell her that it's ok to cry next time you hear or see her cry, let her know you want to be there for her and help her through it
if it is hard finding a doctor in your area make sure she talks to someone she trusts about how she feels and what she goes through
don't try solving the issue by changing the subject on something happier to talk about, let her know its ok to talk and feel bad because she won't get better unless its all outWww@Answer-Health@Com

i would sit her down and talk to her again and let her cry to you because shes been through a lot and she probably would like it if you talked to her about it!. listen to what she has to say!. ask her if she still feels the need to self harm and if she does maybe you should ask her if she wants to see a councellor or something!. i just wouldnt ask her about the sexual abuse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know this sounds harsh but I dont think you can help someone until they are ready to be helped!. Even if you could knock her out and drag her to a therapist, ou wouoldnt get far because she's not ready to accept that she needs help!. All you can do is be there for her when she falls and finally decides she does need someone!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It seems she is just upset because she's going through a hard time in her life!. Counseling may really help her out!. She just needs a break and to get away from all that, try spending more time with her somewhere quite and relaxing so she can get some space!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

she eeds professional help!. All you can do is be supportive!. It t would be a good idea to try and get her to go to the doctor and im sure the doctor would know what to do!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

take her out for a girls day or something! pay for a massage or do something like that that makes her know that you're there and you care for herWww@Answer-Health@Com

just call, go over, take her out, spend as much time as you can with her and keep an eye out for any signs that she's back into it or worse!. being around a supportive friend does wonders!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Encourage her to seek out Greif Counseling!. Make her understand that there are other ppl dealing with greif and if she dont feel she needs it maybe she can be helpful to others who may attend the group!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

She needs therapy!. You cannot do much because she needs professional help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

she needs to talk to a counseler and/or join a disscusion group!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
