Question: Friend+depression prooblems HELP!?
I found at my friend has severe anxiety and depression and an eating disorder and is on medication but didn't tell anyone because she was worried people wouldn't tell her!. This is beacause she is highly intelligent, popular and "happy" and she thinks people wpuld think she was lying!.

The problem is I think she's close to suicide but I dont know what to do coz there is no way I'm supposed to know about her even being depressed!. She didnt tell ANYONE!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
The only thing left to do is to talk to her!. I'm assuming that you might not be in school anymore so talking to the school counselor may not be an option but if you are in school, you could talk to the counselor and get advice on how to deal with it!. Let her know that you are there for her and want to help her!. If you guys are really close, she might feel like she can trust you!. I'm sorry about your friend!. Talk to her ASAP and try to convince her to get help!. Also, let her know that those feelings happen to even the best of us!. I know for a fact that there are alot of celebrities that feel depressed and have tried to commit suicide!. Let her know that it's okay to get help!. Good Luck!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

How do you know all of this then!? how do you know she is close to suicide!?

If you truly feel that there is a serious problem, talk to her!. Be extremely sensitive and tell her that you care about her and that she means a great deal to you!. Tell her that she can come to you if she's having problems or if she ever just needs to talk!. You have to be delicate and not stress the issue!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you know of someone that is thinking about suicide you need to tell someone!. Or you or your friend could call 1-800-suicide!. You do not have to give them your name!.Or any information about yourself you do not want to give!. They really help me and another friend of mine!. Please keep in mind when anyone say the are going to commit suicide you must and should take them very serious!. It could mean life or death!. I have been as bad or worse than your friend and that is why I caution you to take her seriously!. I strongly suggest you call that number it really helps!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just because she keeps secrets doesn't mean you have to be like her and not tell the whole truth!. let her know that you are aware of her condition and you want to help her!. that's what a real friend would do!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
