[quote=Anonymous]As a longtime sufferer of depression beginning in teen years, and a survivor of multiple suicide attempts, I echo the calls to take her in ASAP for assessment by mental health professionals via the ER. Even if she claims to have no plan - even if that’s true at this moment - she’s obviously experiencing intense suicidal ideation or she wouldn’t subject herself to the potential humiliation of telling her friends goodbye. That’s huge. A plan can be formulated in mere moments when the intense urge to not exist washes over her. Pills and sharps are not the only effective methods. Kids asphyxiate themselves with clothing, they drink household cleaners, they jump off roofs. Take her in ASAP; this is a better safe than sorry situation.[/quote]
