[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At that age you feel like if you try hard enough you can accomplish anything, including saving a friend. As a parent, you can try to talk to her about ways to support him as a friend, without drowning herself. And that a good friend knows their limits and when to get a professional involved. She can contact NAMI and get advice. https://nami.org/Home In my 30's I was suicidal. I called my BFF of 20 years. She totd me that this was more than she could handle and I needed to call a professional and call her back ASAP. Once I made a call to my psychiatrist and was waiting for him to call me back, I stayed on the phone with her. Best thing she could've done for me. Support me in the way she could and get me to people that are experts on Mental Illness. [/quote] This right here.[/quote]
