Im really worried about her?!

Question: Im really worried about her?

My friend has ADHD and ADD. Shes normally a happy, hyper and fun person to be around. But after she got back from the christmas holidays, shes been really quiet, and she hardly ever smiles. She'll sit there and stare in to space, and she'll barely laugh unless shes with this one person. I found out shes been self harming, and she stopped, and shes going back and forth, shes also tried to kill herself a few times. Then out of no where, the old her came back. But i saw her today, she looked horrible, she had dark clothes on, bloodshot eyes and looked like she was going to burst into tears. I didn't dare approach her. But i just watched her, she was obvs waiting to be picked up. I found out shes been having problems with her dad who today was hit by a car and in hospital, and shes also having trouble coming out as being Bi sexual, shes having trust issues and is also having problems with her girlfriend i think.
Im really worried about her, shes delepving so many problems, shes having trouble at school from the teachers and no one will listen to her, I don't talk to her very much and i don't plan to change that. But im really worried about her, any thing i could do to help her?

also her MUM nos shes Bi, and that she self harms, but thatts about all i no. and Noooo i am NOT talking to her mother... so dont even bother with that :L

Answers:

I think the only way you can help her is try talking to her when you are in a very personal and secluded place where she would feel comfortable. She just needs someone to support her and someone she just knows she can go to if she needed to. A lot of times it is just a feeling of abandonment from people or loneliness. Also it happens during certain periods of peoples lives. She just needs help getting through it and then she will be fine.

Let her know you're available if she needs to talk, but leave if she seems like she needs to be alone. Pretend for a while that she's the center of the world and you're the periphery, it sounds strange but it'll help you understand the world from her perspective.

" I don't talk to her very much and i don't plan to change that " If i were you i'll try to change that and find a moment to talk to her. Maybe she needs someone to talk to open her heart with someone.

All you can do is be there for her. Make sure you as her friend know all you can about ADD, ADHD.
