I need URGENT help for a friend?
Ok here is the situation:
This person believes NO ONE can help them.
Believes that everyone hates them.
Hates life, cannot find positives.
Has tried help before didn't work.
EXPECTS to be bullied.
I have tried my very best to reason with this person. I am worried about what this person will do, but didn't give me any indication it will happen in the near future. (Commit)
I need detailed answers. Please no religious stuff as I'm not sure if this person believes in it. Please understand I have tried to get them to seek help, but refuses to. Thanks in advance for your help
Thank you guys, very much appreciated. Thanks all for your inputs, it will be hard to give out one best answer. I try some of the things you all have suggested and see how things go.

I would bring this person somewhere public to meet new people, have regular conversations to believe in others. Maybe introduce them to your friends and ask them to be very supporting to this person. Try to get the person more invloved in social stuff to meet new people that will be nice to them and supporting.

Unfortunately, you cannot help someone who doesn't want to be helped. If you are worried about your friend taking his or her life, you may want to talk to this person's parents, guardian, or a family member they trust. If he or she doesn't have supportive family, I suggest you talk to a trusted professional of some sort. If you are in middle or high school, you can talk to a teacher or a school counselor who can help your friend. If your friend is an adult, it may be harder to help him or her. If you have any reason to suspect that your friend is planning suicide, you can call an ambulance and send them to his or her house saying that you think your friend is going to commit suicide. They will hopefully be able get your friend into some sort of therapy after saving his or her life. Good luck and I hope your friend is okay.

In my case he really needs friend to show him he can ask for Hand or to vent too not just hear oh I'm here for you try to hang out do things . Sometimes ppl who been so hurt in life that they don't consider themselves as happy no more or nice or anything they just feel helpless because there been put down so much and sometimes ppl dont talk about it they just say oh I'm nothing or idk anything that's negative but he needs ppl who will understand and someone to talk to . I like helping ppl I do one of things whay I always wanted to do is consuling so i have one of my careers in mind cuz I help alot of ppl and love it its hard to find ppl that understand or just listen so just listen and really be there :)
