Can anyone help?
Last week a friend of mine hung herself in a field not far away from where i live...
Since then i have been utterly disgusting towards other people. Since My friends death i have fallen out with 3 other friends and my stepmother. i dont feel is if i am healing well from her death.. I do feel as if i'm being depended on on a girl. she is also suicidal and i'm awfully sacred she'll kill herself. But i am so tierd of her depending on me, and calling me every 2 hours. I have been deppresed these last few weeks and resorted to mutilation myself. i feel so obliged to help her and forget about helping myself. Tomorow i have a Maths GCSE and i feel as if i don't care. But i do. Can anyone help me tell me what to do?
Thank you.

Honey, you need to get some support right away. What you've gone through is tragic and traumatic and you need to get some professional help to facilitate your grieving and manage your reactions. Do you have a school counselor? If you do, go see them right away when you get to school. It's completely normal to lash out at others when you're grieving, particularly when you're under the stress of feeling as if you're responsible for this other girl and her well-being. You need to stop taking that girls' calls and get some help yourself. It is not your responsibility if she hurts herself but it is if you hurt yourself. You need support. I can't stress this enough. You need to seek the support of someone you trust, whether it be an aunt or uncle, a teacher, a neighbor, some grown-up that can help you find someone to go talk to, like a therapist. Go see your school counselor right away and they will help you. I wish you peace during this sad time.....

tell your dad and get some help for you and your friend. don't ever try to mutilate yourself again,shes not worth you destroying your beautiful body over. if shes still dependent on you, then tell her you don't want to be friends anymore because it seems the more time you spend with that girl, the more depressed you become.
hope i helped and good luck

First of all, you need to take care of yourself before taking care of others. I know you are worried about her but try to talk sense into her. Ask her friends or your school councilor to help her. There's not much things you can do. Please concentrate on your studies .... sometimes we need to be a bit selfish. Take care and good luck !

Seek help of your other friends or elders whom you love and trust as early as possible. Matured elder wise person is a must.
