considering suicide NEED HELP!!!?

Well, you have two options ... tell your boss or someone in HR so they can get her some help ... or sit there THINKING about doing something and watch her die.

Unless you're a psychologist (since you're asking for help one can conclude you're not), you don't have the skills to "help" her ... you do have the ability to acknowledge her cry for help and do something to get help for her. .... or watch her die.

I thought that I could help my best friend who i had known for a majority of our lives with her depression. she was suicidal for months, and I "thought" that I held the power to keep her from doing it. I figured if I stayed by her side and was there WHENEVER she needed me, that I could fix the problem...well the problem was, I was too afraid to tell someone about what she had told me. I was holding her deepest darkest secret, and I thought I was being a good friend. But getting a call saying your friend might not make it, and that she only had ten minutes until she would have died, is not a call you want to hear whether they die or survive, it still hurts. My advice, and what I would have done differently if I could relive it again, is to get her help. Yes talking to a hot line can help, but some times you need an intervention showing them love and support. Contacting someones shes extremely close like one of her parents or family members to get her help and to have them talk to her. They might hate you for not keeping there secret, and they might never trust you again, but seeing that person live is more important. Being suicidal has many phases and many people don't often know what to expect with a friend or family member that has reached that low. It throws curve balls at you when you least expect it, so get them help asap.

Sadly, the best way to save their lives is to call the police.

This is what I learned in my psychology class this year.

1st of all, does she have a "plan of action"? Most people who haven't planned it out usually don't go through with it. However if she does, this is when you want to get concerned. This is how police decide to take someone in, if they have a plan.

Then, the next step would be to talk to her and ask her WHY she feels this way. What are her motivations and triggers that led her to this? Then, summarize it. "So it sounds like you're feeling this and this because..." This way you can be an "active listener". Sometimes people just want you to listen.

If she is still feeling like she is going to do something, I would then call someone. It's the best chance she'll survive. Even if she hates you afterwards, at least she'll still be alive.

If she has had any sort of religious upbringing you could talk to her about the wonderful life that awaits her in heaven. Death is like going to sleep. A deep, peaceful sleep that lasts forever.

I'm no social expert, so I'm not going to write anything to screw up. Just wanted to say that Chloe is a retard.

Just be a good.friend talk to her. And if u feel like she needs serious help.have her talk to a doctor... Best of luck..

speak to someone about it, but i wouldnt get personally involved or have anything to do with it for the sake of your own stress.

needs help from someone like Lifeline or similar where you live

Help her go through with it? Help her commit suicide? If that's what you ment then f**k you!

ask her to do you a favour and don't do it.

tell her if she does it you're a sinner, since you knew of it.
